This year Bacon Day fell on the observed Memorial Day. We did all the usual Memorial Day weekend activities. We ate hotdogs and hamburgers, Sweetie sold Buddy Poppies with his VFW mates, we watched bits and pieces of old war movies on TV, and my favorite was watching the little hometown parade down Main Street.
The parade was very hometown-ish with the local VFW Post, Kiwanis Club, high school marching band, fire department, blood mobile, boy scouts, girl scouts, and the forestry department with their bulldozer.
The high school drumline warming up.
I really liked the Boy Scouts' canoe on wheels.
I don't know who the little girl is but she was having a great time on her pony. And somehow I missed getting a photo of the forestry department's bulldozer.

Looks like a great day. Two wonderful things celebrated in one day. Couldn't be a better day.
I love those hometown parades! Mine did one every other year on Memorial Day, and yours reminds me so much of it!
How fun! We skipped the parades and did yardwork instead.
