This morning, is the city festival kick-off parade.

The parade in which I haven’t been home for in about 10 years (at least).

Our house is on the parade route.

I thought I’d get up and watch the people go by from the comfort of my porch.

Severe thunderstorm.

I walk out onto my porch and there is the ENTIRE group from a local bowling alley (complete with parrot mascot in costume).

Good times on the porch, good times on the porch.
