The past is a great place and I don't want to erase it or to regret it, but I don't want to be its prisoner either.

Very nice Frank!
I hope you don't mind me hijacking your thread to post some pics from the parade in Woodville, OH that our club member Bill Rowles organized for us. He even treated us all to lunch afterward. Thank you Bill! 7 Model Ts of all shapes and sizes from our club and the Maumee Valley club, 10 people. It was a great day. If course, Jim Riedy's dog Champ stole the show!! Onlookers took more pics of him than the cars!

No problem. I hoped people would add to it - added that to the description

We have enjoyed 4th of July parades since 1964.
This one was after Joy and I got married early that morning.

It's been more complicated getting into parades the last few years so we celebrate in other ways.

Just finished a local parade with both T's. Dad is really getting the hang of the old T. My parents enjoyed the day.

Here is a shot of my son and me driving the 1922 in the Anchorage, Alaska parade today. It was the oldest car in the parade.

Here are a few of the pictures from the Coronado, California parade. There must have been several thousand viewers. We went about a mile down Orange Ave from the bridge to the Hotel Del Coronado. There are many 3 or 4 story buildings along the route and people on every floor looking as well as about 15 deep along each side of the street.
The original laundry truck from the Hotel Del Coronado led the way. I am in the black 22 roadster with the windshield folded down. Many military bands and other organizations were there too. The parade took about two hours to go from one end to the other. Weather was great.
