Main Street, U.S.A.

Our town is so quaint. Really, it is.

As soon as the weather warms up, our town goes parade crazy. We live just off Main St., so we can always hear the parades even if we haven't bothered to walk around the corner to see them. This morning there was a Memorial Day parade, and Ickie's former student (now our friendly neighborhood policeman) was in the honor guard. We followed the parade to the park for the ceremony and shooting of rifles. The park was swarming with kids ecstatic about the ice cream truck, but Ben still found a free swing. We walked home and napped with the windows open. Then we grilled burgers for dinner and sat on the back porch. It was a very pleasant day.
