Parade - 2009-07-05 15:27:05

I didn't think the parade was "old-fashioned" at all. For one, I didn't see how the belly dancers tied in with our nation's birthday. The only band was the asian cultural association. Where were any local high school bands? I didn't see any veterans riding on cars for example. It would have been nice to see more antique vehicles and possibly military vehicle collectors as well. The number of mayoral candidates was laughable. The parade was a disappointment for me and my family.

Did Anyone See The Mayor? - 2009-07-05 10:18:58

The Capital has her down for a pre-parade interview, but I did not see her in the parade. Did anyone see her?
