Now, this is creative. I especially liked the cobwebbed golf cart (?) and the band. And I loved seeing the bookmobile! The bookmobile was my favorite as a kid; the last one I’ve actually seen was in Arkansas.

John, you are getting old (as am I), but you point out the blue hair on the girls on the golf cart. That may be fun but there was more to see if you know what I mean.
Anyway, just messing with you. Your city outdoes itself with every event. Is all this done by the mayors office or a private group?
