What time and details can you provide on the Bethany parade?

 

[Cleptomaniac]

Well the wife decided "we" are just doing the Bethany parade! So.... The Bethany parade is a couple miles and we have the only MV in it at this point! My wifes uncle may bring his M35A2 fire truck. Candy and riders are welcome (just have to throw the candy to the curb). The parade ends at Eldon Lyon Park where their is a carnival and then fireworks after dark. If you want in the ladys name is Marla Nix and her phone #is 789-6285

I am planning on going to Sundog this week end so hopefully get to meet you guys!!

One week to go and we only have 7 trucks signed up.

Sad, Sad, Sad.

It should only be a cool 85 degrees for the parade.

I won't be able to make it to this one. The Deuce still has some front diff issues and I haven't had the time to look at it. Sorry about backing out at the last minute. I'm looking forward to seeing the photos!!

One of the parade rules is that you are dressed.

What your wear is up to you. Swim trunks and a tee-shirt or a knight in shining armor. Your call

 

[Fudge0514]

your favorite dress

Sweet, I get to wear my dress! I don't usually wear it out in public, but in this case I'll make an exception.


I'm having two friends meet me at the staging area on the southeast side of the UCO campus, they will be riding in my trailer.

 

[M1075]

a little prep work

Wow, truck looks good!

 

[Fudge0514]

Rain is good now (over night), I just hope it doesn't rain during the morning. It will probably turn away a lot of the paraders! Might have to bring my tarp for the trailer to keep my friends dry incase it rains during the parade. Wasn't planning on bringing the bows or tarp at first, but I will check the weather in the morning and if it looks like we might get some rain, I will bring them along.

And someone back me up on this, but it looks like the Reviewing Stand (Judge's Stand) is on the driver side of our route? Might spice up that side of the trailer more so than the passenger side, if that's the case.
