The 4th of July wouldn’t be complete without the parade in Contoocook, NH, home of brother Rick and his wife Ginni.
We all made it there this year and the kids’ parade was as always a big hit. Both M and S brought home a nice stash of candy, tossed out by the handful from parade vehicles as they passed by us.
We’re in the middle of a heat spell, so a nice patch of shade along the parade route made a nice viewing stand for us. Within walking distance of the house too.
Photos from today are below. Go here and here for photos from other years. About the only thing that’s changed is the grandchildren are bigger.
Ron Thanks for the sweet slice of Americana

I like those old cars!
Did I ever tell you about my Mom and the 4th? She was from Canada and used to say, “ This is a very sad day. It’s the day we lost the Colonies.”
Tongue in cheek, of course.
I hope you’ve been staying cool. My main goal every day Is to paddle Near a Beach.
