Thanksgiving Parade

 We got up extra early on Thanksgiving, not to put a Turkey in the oven, but to get downtown to check in for the parade, then get a continental breakfast and our parade jackets. It was daylight by the time we got to the banner staging area where we waited around for our coordinator who showed up late. We put the banners together and the leader showed up in time to get us out in front of our groups. We were in front of the Jessie White Tumblers who kept stopping to tumble and made us look like we weren’t keeping up. Finally got thru and went back for another run only this time, we were balloon handlers. We handled the Grinch balloon. They were short on balloon handlers and were picking people out of the crowd to help with it. Needless to say, it did not go entirely smoothly but we made it to the end. Looking forward to doing it again next year!
