Where to begin. First off, I must note that I missed the parade entirely. Matt took these shots and should probably be the one providing commentary. He has posting privileges on this blog but has yet to take advantage of that great honor. Drew found a list of the winning floats in The Chronicle and we have pics of a few. So. Without further ado and with apologies for not editing this giant roster of pics . . .

Rochester's Swede Day Queen Napavine's Funtime Festival Royal Court (we are soo there!) Morton's Loggers Jubilee Court Our own Egg Day Royal court Silliness and FavoritesSuch a morbid float for such a sunny, happy day. There was a man sitting on the float with a ventriloquist dummy w/ spinning eyes hollering out 'He's on meth" while pointing to the dummy! My personal fav. Saw this cart sitting in the parking lot of Cedar Village. LOVE IT.
