Fourth of July

This year, we were home on the July 4th holiday, which enabled us to observe the La De Da parade in Yachats.  If I had to choose one word to describe the parade it would be non-traditional.  It included two umbrella squads (not that Oregonians often use umbrellas); lots of people dressed up in red, white, and blue, or rainbow colors; candy and dog biscuits being thrown along the parade route, an amazing squad from the local anti-invasive species committee, and a woman riding a cart pulled by a miniature horse, among other things.

Here are a few photos of the parade.
