If I've done this right, you should be able to see a slideshow of the tiny parade we have each year here at the lake. I love this parade. It's teensy and corny and everything that a small town parade should be.

They even tolerate me yelling at the Republican Women's float every year. Thank you, ladies! Thank you for helping to cut education funding! Thank you for helping to make corporate America even richer! Thank you for helping to keep so many without healthcare. People are dying every day and you helped! Thank you!! Obnoxious? Yes, and I have no apology for that. My government offends me much more than I offend the Republican Women of Canyon Lake every year. I should do more yelling. I should never, ever stop.

The strange mix of Christian imagery with red, white, and blue on some of the floats caused my youngest son to exclaim, without any irony whatsoever, "Look, Mom! A Jesus piƱata!"
