It wouldn't be Christmas without the Fountain City Christmas Parade!

With my tardy posts you may have thought I didn't make it to the Fountain City Christmas Parade. You would be wrong. I can't miss the parade and I will drag John with me as long as I am able. This year it was cold and raining but that didn't stop us...or the parade either. What I found odd was that the parade was better this year than last year, even with the weather. I am thinking someone dropped the ball last year.

I was tickled pink because some of the old favorites were back (Candy Cane Queens) after last year's absence and new groups showed up (Austin East and Fulton High School Bands). Austin East's band was my favorite. I am a sucker for dancing while "marching" and playing an instrument. It makes me want to be a band geek...for a little while at least.

All in all, the parade was great and I tip my hat to all of the people in the parade that walked in the rain to entertain all of us passersby with umbrellas. I hope all of your colds were minor ones. Thank you Fountain City Optimist Club.
