Our little town isnt big enough to celebrate most holidays but we have a nice doings for the 4th every year. We get lots of folks who moved away as kids that come back and it is a fun time to catch up and visit. Thought i'd share a few parade pictures with you all. Lindsay carried the flag and led the procession.
Then came the Livingston Family and a shot back in time at some of the folks who helped settle the west, like Jim Bridger and Porter Rockwell.
Buffalo Bill Cody lost some weight and looks dumber than i remember.
Scott is a poor re-enactor but a great cattleman and a good friend.
The Atherley family did a fine fine job and won some prize money for thier efforts.
The Asay's always throw lots of candy and are fine folks.
The Walker kids went a' horseback and they looked like they were having fun.
A crowd favorite was Layne and his grandparents along with thunderbolt, his steed. That lil' guy is my cousins kid and he is a character. Think he gets it from his mothers side of the family. :wink:
Next was the 4H float. My mom is the 4H leader for our part of the desert. She has kids in ther livestock club that show calves, lambs, hogs, turkeys, horses and other gals teach sewing and cooking to boot. They all rode on a float and depicted what they wanta be when they grow up.
Thought they did a great job and won some money too!
Littlest H is the kid in camo saluting and honoring our soilders. Pretty proud of the kid. He's a good helper and in my back pocket most days.
Little H plans to become a veteranian. She is a beautiful young lady and has so many talents i lose track. If i do say so myself. :wink:
More family floats like the Pehrson/Ekker family float.
And Holden on his 2 wheeled japanese quarter horse.
I think this bunch were Pehrsons but out'a towners cause i dont know them.
What's a parade without fire trucks? Our fire department of 6 was well represented even though one fire fighter stayed on the sidelines snapping pictures. :wink:
Our used structure truck we bought at a surplus sale in Michigan. Might be older but is a good truck and a lifesaver out here.
Porter Rockwell was a Mormon who is well know for his exploits in the west. RJ did a fine job pretending to be him.
Peyton and her grandma enjoying ther festivities!
A second shot of the littlest cowboy rides again.
My favorite entry was the Adam's brothers and thier take on the second ammendment! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
It was a great day to celebrate being an American. We had booths and games and a good supper. Hope ya'll had FINE Celebration and took a moment to remember all we have been blessed with and all the sacrifices made so we can live how and where we do! God Bless America and have a fine afternoon!

Why in the he!! can't i post pics that simply show up the size i select instead of this crap???? Sorry they require a magnifying glass to veiw them. I am done posting pictures to this site until macon either figures out a user friendly way to post them directly here to ranchers.net or i find a site that works for me Photobucket and picturepush used to work great. Now they are complicated pieces of garbage!!!! :x
Looks like your family and your community all had a wonderful day. Thanks for taking us along.
