I love a parade !

Post by Rich P. Bingham » Mon Feb 13, 2023 8:11 pm

The Ford dealer went all out and even hired a brass band ! I find it curious that a newer car is powering the float. Maybe a lot of '14 cars yet in inventory ? :lol:

Sparse turnout. Looks like the driver had to shift his driving stance to allow for the slide trombone!

That slide trombone in the driver's ear reminded me of a Christmas Parade I once attended. At the very last minute , just as we got under way, i was asked if I could carry a musician in the back seat. No worries. I was startled out of my wits when this dreadlul squeak emanated from the rear. My first thought was an embarrassing breakdown, but then the piper found his wind!
