Wow, what a storm it was this morning! After seeing some of the pictures of the parade on Facebook it looked as if something was about to get rescheduled.... not to worry though.

The Parade and events scheduled tonight are happening!  As you can see from these photos taken at about 11 am today, it looks like they have already recovered...

All systems go for tonight's mini-concert and of course tomorrow's parade.  It's really surprising to me how an event with the magnitude that exists in this town has been able to turn around such a great recovery plan in mere hours.  It says something about this town that is very refreshing. People are tough here, resilient, and not afraid of any stinking rain or wind.
