Last Night was our local parade ... you might want to take a look at this link ...

While the pictures are not the current year's parade, it'll give you an idea as to what it is. All the floats are farm implements decorated. The lights and decorations are now far beyond what many of these pics show! OUr little village comes alive .... from a population of about 3000 to over 15,000 lining the streets and country roads. The Parade starts at a farm, out the back lane, around thru the village, up the next line and in the front lane of the farm.
