Not really much time to edit this.

Went to the 4th of July parade today. I make it a point of taking kids to parades because I did not go to many as a child. Of course, the kids are only excited about this because people in the parade throw candy...

Well today, the parade time was wrong, we got there an hour early, and then part of the parade went down the wrong street (lol) so there was quite a delay in the whole thing.

There wasn't really much to the parade but these guys looked like they were having fun. I like the guy in the back.

Happy 4th!

Yes, parades can be pretty boring after awhile, but these guys look like they were having fun.

Looks like a nice, midwestern town (I'm an old Illinois-boy myself). I like all the red.

I'm just the opposite. I never go to parades because I was in so many as a teenager (marching band). Also, my oldest son is very sensitive to loud noises and they scare him still. Still, when I can get around to it, there is nothing like a parade! Candy or not. :)

You never know what you'll see in a parade. VEry good saturation and exposure.

Only the guy in the back gave you the thumbs up (or is he just in an awkward position)?! LOL! Nothing like a tractor caravan on the Fourth!

Really fun, humorous shot!

My kids only like parades for the candy too. Come Labor Day weekend, I'm going to ask if they wouldn't rather just go to the grocery store and spend $3 on a candy variety pack, and skip the sitting in the hot sun hoping we can leave before the fire trucks start making us cover our ears.

I was just noticing the guy in the back and the way he is laughing so hard when I read your comments... this shot IS a lot of fun!! We only have 1 parade here a year and it is to celebrate strawberries :) You did good with the stopped action!

This is really funny. We arrived nearly an hour late to the local parade due to a misprint. I actually have a picture of a guy on a tractor...

Very nice, love the vibrant reds in this. I think maybe the guy in the back is getting too many exhaust fumes!! LOL. No really great shot!!
