July 4th - Grand Parade

American Fork High School - they are an amazing band and so disciplined.











We decided to go watch the parade on Saturday but we sat upstairs where it was air conditioned and away from the crowds. Parents were ignoring their kids who were playing in the street and acting up. Once kid ran in front of one of the trucks in the parade. The parents just ignored him. One of the parade riders on the truck had to step down to make sure nobody else ran in front of the them. These were not small trucks. They also threw candy on the side and of course the kids went nuts fighting over it but that was nothing to the free t-shirts. The kids swarmed them and were just taking them and once again the parents sat on the side doing nothing. We saw a group of kids fighting over one shirt and deciding on rock, paper, scizzors to determine the winner. It was a plain, ugly t-shirt. We were glad to have the peace and quiet of our windowed room.
