We know summer is here
when we spend our Saturday mornings sitting on the curb of various small
town Main Streets. Our first parade of this season was in our neighboring city of Lehi, Utah. Lehi was famous for being the site where
the original Footloose movie was filmed in 1984. We "set up camp" in
the intersection next to the post office.
Rain is
starting his Senior year of high school next month, so this will be the last time he
marches with the band in each of these parades. As for us? We just smile
and wave! (and cheer!) It's Rain's turn to wear a costume!

Yes, we really do set up in the middle of the intersection!

It all begins with our flag
Not the band we were waiting for, but cool!
And here they are!

Rikki managed this shot with her iPhone. Our challenge is always to try to make Rain smile.
Mission Accomplished! This is as close to a smile as we've ever been able to get from Rain during a performance.
And yes, we know it's blurry, but it was Ryatt's shot
Is this a festival, town fiesta or national celebration? From the photos, the parade presentation is colorful and lively.
