Forgive me for posting a ridiculous number of photos of one parade.

Parade theme 1: dogs. Here are some English sheepdogs and their... toy soldiers?
I am glad my high school band uniforms did not look like this:
Cowboys:
Reindeer on unicycles. I guess if they can fly they can unicycle.
Impressive job of staying in straight lines (look at those diagonals!).
Following a sign that said, "Hope your holidays are dino-mite!":
Scotties:
Giant Scotty:
Yep, we really like dogs here in Seattle:
And, finally, a gingerbread house:
I had a blast.

Macy's Holiday Parade: It rained.

But I still had fun. More pics to come soon.

Remember this? This is how it knitted up.

Also: Happy Thanksgiving!

Mine is at least 17 minutes late.

Kinnear: my contribution

I've been trying to get a good picture of this bus for awhile now. It's a little complicated to explain. It may make a little sense if you read this blog entry by Stephanie Pearl-McPhee, and then a follow-up explanation here. See also the bottom of this wikipedia page (the "pop culture references" section - "to kinnear").
