Visiting in Williams AZ. Their July 4th parade was very patriotic and sometimes moving. It also featured a group of five mountain men in buckskins and fur hats, riding beautiful horses, all matching.

You would have been proud. Every politician running for office was in the parade. All wore jeans, boots, ten-gallon hats and sidearms. One who was marching rather than riding worked the crowds on both sides of the street. He had lots of supporters. No Dems we’re in the parade as I could tell.

Our muzzleloading group used to quite a few holiday parades in the past. We were always a hit with the spectators.

Come on out to Cody, WY the next time all of us Codys have our bi-annual family reunion and join the parade alongside the rest of the annual parade folks. It's pretty sweet. Real Sharp's rifles and all.
It's like stepping back in time 100 years.
And then we all pile into the Irma Hotel and line up at the bar for a sarsaparrila (or stronger).
Here grandpa and three of our grandkids playing the part during the festivities two years ago with the Irma in the backdrop.

Come on out. We'll buy you a round charles! Me and the gang.

Blessings,
Mark

that's because many modern-day dems hate America.
