Re: Sharon Center parade
Looks like a small town? Is that the total population or are some visitors?

Re: Sharon Center parade
My guess is thats the population being in Idaho and all that. Looks like the Amish kids are having a blast. I live in vacationland so we dont have a July 4th parade..can't inconvenience the tourists by closing a road for an hour or two. Heaven forbid!

Re: Sharon Center parade
Very nice pics Dean! Enthusiasm is more important that numbers anyway.
Looks similar to the St. Patrick's Day parade in the tiny town of Padua, MN!

Re: Sharon Center parade
I should have told you Dad to go watch the parade. He lives off of 22 by Orange Ave. in Kalona. What did you drive Dean?

Re: Sharon Center parade
That's one I haven't been to. We prefer the small town parades rather than the big towns. They often have a meal or pot luck afterwards and the folks are much more friendly as I see it.
Thanks
Rich
Thanks

When did I do that?

That would take a while to get rid of the bag of candy, but everybody gets more than one piece.

Re: Sharon Center parade
My first guess was that you were following an Allis Model C, but I'm not so sure. Somehow it looks smaller than a C.
The inevitable often happens.

Re: Sharon Center parade
I wouldn't think that people who vacation in Ohio were all that picky!

Re: Sharon Center parade
The vacationers aren't, but the locals don't dare tie up the precious "main parade route" BECAUSE of the tourists. Don't wanna upset the money machine!

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.
