Our last "cooler" morning for a while.  It was 63o at 5:30 so we had a nice morning run, but  by 1:00, it was 100o outside when the P-town parade was wrapping up.

MR rode the bike while Wyatt Earp and I ran the lilly-pad pond route again.  So pretty with the sun coming up on the water.  Near the pond, MR found a whole pile of unused fireworks.  They came in handy for some nice "4th of July" photos at the pond.  it really was a good run!

After the run, we all met back at P-town to watch the parade.  I was surprised how long the parade lasted, but impressed with the variety of entries.  My favorite is the "Red-Neck Hot Tub."  There was actually water in the back of the truck!

 

 And here's a pix of Wyatt and I decked out in our festive patriotic hats that Wyatt created for us to wear for the P-town parade.  Hope everyone's week-end was wonderful!

Wow! A 100 degrees by noon. It reminds me when I lived in Kentucky. Love the pickup with the hot tub and Confederate flag.. you don't see that where I live.

Is this the same parade you attended last year? If so, the 'red neck hot tub' is a step up, isn't it? :)
