Fourth of July Parade

July 7, 2010 – 1:32 am

Yesterday marked the hundredth year of celebration of fourth of July in my town. That is why we had the parade yesterday instead of the actual day. I accomplished my assignment and I am very proud of myself. I set my alarm to wake up, got up and ready, grabbed my camera and walked over to where the parade would be. It was in the high ninety’s and the sun was shining high but it was worth it. Even though it was boiling out people still had great spirit for the holiday.

The ones you dream at night and daydream during the day. They can be accomplished here.
