Today was Kelowna's (my city) 100th aniversary so they had a "big" parade (ROFL! 1 float!!!). Anyways, I got some pic.s and I decided to post some of them.

Sorry that some aren't the best pics, but there were lots of people in front of me + everything was moving, so BLAH!

I feel sorry for the people who had to use this as their only form of fire combat in the old days...

I know, heh. And, ironically enough, a good number of their things are not bargains in any way, shape or form

you live in Shediac? Isn't that near Campbellton or Tideshead or Bathurst? I was born in campbellton and i go there every summer...I think it's either my Dad's friend lives there or it's near Campbellton...it goes tideshead, campbellton then what? Delhousy? (spelling

You should come to the salmon festival...the parades always a repeat but it's still fun

We used to have really good parades where I live, but over the past 6 years, the quality has completely decreased, and we can't seem to get any decent people to do them... And after, at the carnival, there used to be loads of stuff, it was packed with tug-of-war with the old men, like parents and stuff... But now, there's no feeling of team-work or anything, and it sucks... .
