I'm with you. Alton has the best Memorial Day parade. Watching all the veterans marching in their uniforms brings tears to my eyes every year. They still stand straight and tall even though many are well over 80.
It's small town life at its best.
I love how Alton kids get to celebrate the holidays at school. Alton believes the kids should learn about everyone's holidays and not ban them from the schools.
I also love the lake in the winter when it's quiet.
