Event Coverage Best Memorial Day ever at Poverty Flats (private parade)

Right on! You guts are living right. . .

 

If not, there's always Rolaids!

But, seriously, nice photos from a fun day...thanks for that and for reminding us what real fun is all about while honoring the day

 

Thanks, that's mine. I'm importing the pics that I took right now, I'll try to throw them up here in a little bit.

"Yer a good man, Gunga-din"!

My hat's off to you Paul, ya gotta big heart!

 

Very nice! Small town folk still get what America is all about! Anyone out there who hasn't had home-made ice cream, especially if you hand cranked it, hasn't lived! It's Heaven on Earth!

 

See now there you went an done it, exercising your 1ST Amendment right of freedom of assembly, then you go and violate local ordinances, and parade around town without a Permit. Good thing the local costable was enjoying his holiday, hope he don't get wind of it, and start harrasing the participants. Hopefully he local fee collector don't come looking for his retroacitve payment, You coulda denied it if you hadn't posted the pics all over the damn net......

looks like and All American good time was had by all. Can almost taste the roast pork all the way up here in the northeast.

Well done and HIP HIP Hooray on all of you.

 

you said private parade and i think that it was kind of eerie in a good way to not see anyone looking at your parade...maybe just the ghosts of our vets were watching!! great thing you did!

 

Man couple of months ago your the Mayor now this weekend your the Grand Marshall !! Now I call that livin right. Glad you had a good memorial day >>>>.

 

is this the coolest little town in america? It sure looks like it from this side of the big pacific pond!

 

little town near salina Kansas, population around 400. SALUTE!

 

Paul, you city slickers have all the big doin's. Cool! Lippy (In Rush Center, 300 Population) We still have the worlds biggest St. Patricks day celebration! LOL. Oh Yeah, our Mayor drives a 67 chevelle SS.

 

Sounds like quite the event. You're one heck of a guy Paul!

 

Looks like everybody had a great day. The private parade idea was great. Nice to see "Small town America" is alive and well in your area.

 

paul,you are so very cool!

 

Thank you but I am not the mayor and I'm not cool. But I WAS the Grand Marshall of my own parade. We sure had a good weekend. The simple life is the good life.

Thanks Paul, for keeping it all in perspective.

 

I looked up; "where did America go?" in my Webster's dictionary, and there was a photo of Poverty Flats!

 

Very.....very.....VERY kool! Great pics!

 

Just to quote dusteo1 again....SSAAALLUUTE!!!!

 

Dude.....I'm moving there....

Is the local Cop shop hiring? I promise I'ma cool cop....

I'm soooo sick of the city and the problems that come with the city...

You done good for our vets.....

 

Sounds like a damn good Memorial day to me!

 

Probably not something we should be advertising but... well... we don't really have a Cop shop, I think we had one officer when I was a kid, but that was 20 years ago that I have those memories, and I don't remember if he worked for the city or was just assigned our area of the county by the Sheriff's office haha.

 

We used to have our own part time city deputy but he got fired. Now we have county sheriff deputies who sit in town and write speeding tickets. Probably a good gig compared to violence in FL. The problem is......we have no beach or surf! If you can get past that, then come on up here.

 

You can't really see from this pic but, we had his little hot rod painted and stickered up, including his name on the back. I've been thinking of fixing up a radio flyer type wagon for him, but his mom (my lil sis) would prefer him to be a pro golfer over a F1 driver...as his uncle I respectfully beg to differ. May have to ask forgiveness instead of permission on this one.
