Some photos below of the parade here in Hinesburg today. We had the usual: fire trucks, Cub Scouts, bagpipers, horses. It was a great community event. Afterwards there was a big old kid fest at the school. Once we played games and found friends and checked out the stream, we walked across the road for a creemee.
The children are staying up late to watch the fireworks. They may or may not make it, but why not give it a shot? If they do stay up, I am hoping they crash quickly. I could use some early to bed myself.
OK this last one isn't a great photo, and it didn't really capture what I wanted, but this woman was handing candy (passed out by several people with the floats) to all of the fire truck drivers. It was a thoughtful thing to do. I was moved by this small act of kindness.
Happy Independence Day.
