While I'm at It....

I bet you don't have all of these things in your parades...

A Pumpkin Cinderella Princess Carriage pulled by a tractor... Really cute Jr. High Dancer Team girls passing out gobs of candy...
Kilt wearing Bagpipers? Why do we have bagpipers?
A Large plastic moose riding on the back of a truck...
A flat bed semi full of banjo players...
A political extravaganza littering the streets and sky with a blaze of yellow...
A front row view where a toddler can hold a balloon, eat a sucker, and watch floats with Veggie Tales go by ( I missed snapping the Veggie Tales, I think I was still blinded by all the yellow!)
A Gym float that your sister mistakenly identifies as a gay pride float...

Funny, I'm most perplexed by the bagpipers! I bet lots of you have those!! I didn't get a picture of the gymnasts tumbling on a trampoline on the back of a semi or the parade of dogs followed by a man in a very revealing superman costume carrying a sign identifying himself as the "Super Pooper Scooper".
I bet you're feeling that your parades are sad and boring compared to ours, aren't you!?

Oh - how I do MISS the pumpkin festival - but honestly, I can't recall ever seeing the bagpipers.... When did they pop in?
