Billy Barker Days - The Parade

For 37 years running BBDays has hosted its annual parade and today was no different. We set up our lawn chairs outside of our friend Marge's shop "Expressions By Ewe" (yes its a hobby and craft shop) and with Robin's coffee and donuts firmly in hand we commenced observing. The promised thundershowers managed to hold off to create some beautiful parade viewing weather. I was particularly happy to see 2 bands (a marching band and a pipe band) as part of the route because to me no parade is complete without them.


3/4ths of the happy family


Marshall looking sooo cool in his new fedora bought in China


Carter was pretty happy to see Ronald (or Uncle McDonald as he is known in China)


Carter had been dying for days to meet this Billy Barker character we had been talking about.
