Today was the Golden Days Parade downtown. The Literacy Council starts it by having a one mile race (they call it "the Golden Mile"). Krystin asked if I wanted to help hold the banner and I said sure. She got me an "olden days" dress to wear haha. I had to wear long underwear cause it was rainy, windy and FREEZING. I was fine walking, but it was so cold just standing around. People cheered for us hehe. They had a timer at the end and we walked the mile in 16 minutes and 45 seconds..cool. After we finished mom and I decided to watch the parade. Even though I've lived here five years it was my first time seeing it! First there were old cars and then..nothing. It took a really long time for the other floats to get where we were! Mom was about to give up cause it was so cold haha (good thing we had a blanket to wrap up in :P). Finally the other floats got there. It was cool..I hadn't been to a parade in years! I just wish it wasn't so cold and windy! There were a lots of floats it seemed like..these people walked by and was like "the parade is halfway done!" WHAT. We were too cold to stand outside anymore and watched the rest from the car. It should not be this cold in July. D: The festival and rubber ducky race is also happening today but I'm done being cold haha
Lots of fireweed this year!
