Because I know that some of my co-workers read this blog (Yes, you – Linda & Cathy!), I must first confess that I was a skeptic of the Pet Parade. I thought that it was just a bunch of citizens walking their animals in a line. They insisted that it was a big affair and boy, was it! We received a program with the Parade’s line-up and included almost 100 floats/exhibits! We had a great time and this will surely be added to our yearly line-up of family events. (June 5, 2010)

The parade wasn’t even over, but Charlie was exhausted!
The pictures were endless, but I couldn’t possibly post them all here. It was a great day and we enjoyed it immensely!
I heard about this from a co-worker. She went and said it lasted 2 hours. Her brother has a shop and they passed out dog bisquits! Too funny!
