Last Sunday afternoon we ventured over to the Halloween Golf Parade in Palm Desert. It reminded us that we really do live in a smallish town. The local newscasters are always the celebrities.
I gave the parade an A for effort. The theme for the parade was Super Heroes and teachers were lifted up as some of the best super heroes.
I loved that many schools were represented with their marching bands and drill/flag teams along with a few cheerleaders for good measure!

| Heavy lifters
Some of the golf carts were cutely decorated.
I had a special fondness for the one "dressed up" like a VW bus.
 And this tribute to some fantastic women in our world was a big hit too! 
This one, highlighting 90's stuff was super cute too.
When did the 90's become such a thing of the past?
I might've even tucked some ideas away for when our club does a golf cart parade!
Sadly, I have to give the overall parade about a C-. It was roasting hot (not their fault) but the parade organizers didn't keep things moving at a good pace and there wasn't enough music between the bands so there were long lulls that were quite boring. So we left a bit early. Even so, it was fun to get out and enjoy a community event, especially one where you could cheer kids on and celebrate their involvement.
