The Swamp Thing…

 Time for the 62nd Annual Swamp Buggy Parade! Just the name itself- is thought provoking… After all there is a Swamp Buggy Queen- not sure what the requirements would be…

We braved it this year (along with the Lewis Family) with the threat of a tropical depression and a major downpour from the night before. It only lasted an hour but tradition calls and the Lewis kids made out like bandits with the candy!

DSC06678 This is what I call creative!

DSC06681 Yes- I have my eyes closed- but the only photo of us taken together so it will have to do! Thanks Jill & Doug for joining us…
