I Love A Parade

It finally feels like fall. There is a nip in the air every morning, and the leaves are starting to change color (as much as they do in Northern California). It is also time for Willow Glen's annual Founder's Day Parade.

I love a good parade. Especially a laid back community parade complete with high school marching band, classic cars, and girl and boy scouts. This year's Founder's Day Parade didn't disappoint.

The parade started at 10:30 am on Lincoln Avenue, our neighborhood's main business street. We walked to the parade, and found a spot near the beginning at Willow and Lincoln. We brought the double stroller, but the boys happily sat on the sidewalk to watch. No pushing, shoving or piles of people to ruin our view.

Caleb's favorite part was a car that looked like blue Mater (from the movie Cars), and Xander's favorite part was the mounted police.

If your neighborhood has a Founder's Day Parade seek it out. It was such a wonderful way to kick-off Fall.
