We still were walking along the streets and enjoyed the town when we heard the bell rung. That was the time and we returned to the main street...
We joined the crowd just in time and found a
bellman, who pronounced that the Declaration of
Independence was recently
signed
in Philadelphia and the states now are independent from British crown...
I
think all the parades in the small towns are pretty much the same... They
all look nice and homey. Everybody knows everybody. They all cheer each
other on and look like a big family. The parade usually starts with some
veterans who carry the flags.
The Harley bikers are usually the next, and the firefighters, the sheriffs, ambulances, small local businesses, families, athletes, students and so on, so on, so on...
Some juggles and
clowns, some life pictures from the history and scenes from Wild Wild West times and some historical
persona from the town...
Some horses and some tractors... They all are well dressed and invariably affable. We love these parades and always enjoy staying and looking at these endless groups of friendly people.
Pictures were taken on July 04, 2015.
