The patriotic citizens of Dorr, Michigan are anticipating tomorrow's parade with evident eagerness.
Yards and roadsides of those blessed to live along the parade route are festooned with lawn chairs, deck chairs, blankets, towels, tent stakes, pop-up vendor tent frames, fence stakes, and yellow caution tape, perhaps filched from the nearest crime scene.
Because it's 4th of July weekend and who would dream of committing crime on America's birthday?
Especially when there's a parade to prepare for!
Oh, and flags. Flags everywhere, of every size and pole type.
We are ready, by the way.
The MHF float is complete, staged and ready for early-morning takeoff 2 miles up the road from its designated line-up point.
The Report Cards are ready but NOT loaded on to the float, because rain was forecast overnight.
In fact, a rip-roaring T-storm just rolled through, so we're congratulating ourselves on keeping these treasures of civic knowledge safely stored indoors.
We will see you after the parade, and post pics. If you take any photos of us that you'd like to share, please send them to the MHF Page.
Happy 250th Birthday, America!
Happy Independence Day from Michigan Healthcare Freedom!
