The 3rd weekend of July, Des Moines puts on the Water Land Parade as a sub-event during Seattle's SeaFair festivities. I have been going to this parade for years and I have always enjoyed it. My parents and I walk the 1-1/2 miles to get there.
Rowan under a Rowan Tree or an Eastern Mountain Ash!
Santa in summer
Dad and I in front of the Scotch and the Vine.
A bunch of guys balancing on top of each other while riding a motorcycle!
The SeaFair Pirates! They always shoot their little cannon!
I got kind of hot and hungry. I wasn't excited about the food at the Scotch and the Vine. It's a little too grown up for my taste. I wasn't as excited about the parade this year.
