Here are more pictures from the Rose Parade on Saturday morning. We were situated about a half mile from the beginning of the parade, along Colorado Boulevard at Fair Oaks. It was very cold...mid 30s...before the sun came up, but the sky was clear so we picked the north side of the street to take advantage of the warm California sunshine, once it cleared the buildings on the other side of the street. That didn't take long. You get a whole different perspective on the parade be witnessing it in person than watching on TV. Things move along very quickly! Up at the top is the Salvation Army Marching Band. They were playing "Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus" which was pretty cool. It was a nice balance to some of the religious fools that were going up and down the parade route before the event began. Then there is a high school band from Japan followed by some of the early floats. Just below is a high school marching band from near Mexico City. For a number of reasons this was one of the crowd favorites!
Stay tuned...there are plenty more to come...On Wisconsin!!!
