Renton River Days

It's parade season.  This is my second this summer already.  I didn't show the first one because it was all tractors.  I didn't want to make you suffer.  But suffer you will today...for my family's sake.  Emailing them the photos would be too easy.


Here we are.  Grammy saved us all prime seats.  She carried 6 folding chairs by herself!  I was impressed.  She is 90 after all and it was about 90 degrees!

  1. Clowns FREAK me the eff out. Not the scary ones, I think those are funny. It's just like, you know, pedophile with a big red nose?

  2. Ha ha love that kids bowl cut!! I haven't been to Renton River Days for YEARS! I think since I was in high school on the drill team and we were actually in the parade! Ha ha. I need to make more of an effort to go! They're actually kinda fun. Well Salmon Days is coming up here pretty soon! Oh and I meant to tell you, last year at Salmon Days, I SAW you with your family. I was going to say hi but I was working at one of the booths and couldn't leave right then! Anyway, thought I'd tell you! :-)

  3. One of my most favorite things about having my kidlets all raised to adulthood was I didn't have to attend parades anymore-dislike them!...........yeah; so watch me go someday with Dori! I'll shelter her from the bizarre clowns...I dislike them also. Haven't I seen that bowl cut on you in a Flashback Friday pic?

  7. Bowl cuts were all the rage when I was in elementary school. All the hot guys had them.
