Little Super Patriot

This child rode in the fire engine in the Veterans Day Parade. She appears to have a "Super" log on her shirt and was very seriously waving her flag.

Tired? Yeah, tired of second place!

I loved the signs this woman and her daughters had for the Women's March on Jan. 20th. From the look on her face, the littlest one isn't tired at all. This photo is our entry for the City Daily Photo Theme Day -- the theme this month is "Tired." You can see the rest of the world's ideas on this subject here.

Ann Richards School Band

All girls! Even the tubas! Yes!

ROTC

This is a sharp-looking unit. All in step, too!

Pep squad

This is the Del Valle Pep Squad - always fun to watch young women having a good time and full of school spirit.

Freemasons in the ranks of famous Texans

Quite a few famous Texans were Freemasons -- as you can see.

Lowrider!

This guy was having the time of his life in the Vet's Day parade.

Nice outfits

These ladies were part of the Vet's Day parade the other morning. They had on historically correct outfits.

Thanking a vet

That's "Cor-vette." Get it?

Flags are always flying

Parades are made for flags and marching. In this group are some from the Confederacy that were kind of controversial this year.

Boycotting!

This man marching with the Girl Scouts in the parade, is for boycotting the NFL. About head injuries?

Veteran's Day Band

This is the Del Valle High Band in the local Vet's Day parade. This big guy is some type of marshal, I suppose.

Vets speak out

This group had a cause they were marching for in the Veterans Day parade.

The Kiss

At the Veteran's Day parade this month, these intrepid folks reenacted the kiss caught by photographer Alfred Eisenstaedt on VJ-Day in Times Square. The couple would pause and then, after a few beats, do the kiss again.

Gig 'em!

Here is the Aggie Band in the same parade as I showed yesterday.

Hook 'em!

The Longhorn Band marched in the parade for the inauguration of the new Texas Governor.

Curious George on Congress Avenue

Lots of happy kids watched the balloons in the Chuy's parade. Here is Curious George who delighted the children who saw him.

Parading downstream

This mermaid was part of the Christmas parade. Lots of colorful outfits in the procession!

No, not Fifth Avenue

  

 In honor of the season, I'm going to post a few photos from the Chuy's Christmas Parade

that happened a few weeks ago. Here you see the Coca-Cola bear floating down Congress Avenue.

I love a parade

These band members were very well-disciplined and their playing was excellent.  They must have a good director.
