I have to agree that it wasn't the best of parade's. The weather was not on their side but it didn't look as if the same effort had been put into the decorations this year as in last years. By the time we saw it, (just past the sandbar) there weren't very many boats in it and some of the deorations looked like they may have blown off or ripped off. Also the people in the boats didn't seem to be in the spirit of things. Last year everyone was waving and singing, this year most just stood there and didn't return waves or shouts. (With the exception of the fire boat and the boat slinging water balloons.) Hopefully next year will be better weather for all involved.
