Christmas Parade in Brooksville, Florida

We think everyone in the town of Brooksville turned out for the annual Christmas Day Parade. We were able to enjoy the parade this year also and what a spectacular event it was. Jo and I were even able to be seen in the camera lens with Santa. What a treat not only for us, but also all the children as their smiles widened on their faces when they saw the Jolly Good Fellow. The parade began with the flying of the colors of this wonderful country where we can all share the joys and true meaning of Christmas together. The only snow was the "sign" hoping for snow. Guess that is why we come to Florida for the winter. The person driving the Rescue Unit may be wondering where they left their coffee cup as the parade started on its way. We at least saw it on the bumper. The bands were all dressed up and playing the music of the holiday. There were floats, dancing children, horses, and even one tractor. Reminded me of trading the sleigh for a tractor back in Iowa.

Jo and Vaughn wish our family and all our friends a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year. God Bless Everyone.
