Small Town Christmas Parade

Last night was the semi-official start of the Christmas season: the Christmas Parade. Fortunately it was cold, so after dinner we bundled up in our coats and hats--Daisy looked like visiting Russian royalty in her red polarfleece coat with leopard-print trim, and knitted hat with a piecrust frill.

Main Street was very crowded, but we found a spot in the back of my colleague Bucky's pickup truck, with a good view. Three marching bands, many floats, and at least a dozen convertibles with beauty queens--Little Miss County Fair, Teen Miss County Fair, Deaf Miss County Fair, Petite Miss Butterfield, etc. The marching bands caused Daisy some very big eyes.

We came home frozen and satisfied.
