So....I've been waiting for Main Street to start filling up with pick-ups and pop-up tent frames, and the odd flatbed trailer. They usually start flooding Main Street and Central the end of June.
The banners are up. The flags are flying. A couple places have been roped off. Even a couple port-a-potties and risers have been set out. The COB (City of Belton) barricades have popped up, so Belton's Finest can block off the streets a little before the parade. But the preperations are nothing like years past.
Well...I happened to be downtown.
OMGOSH!!! That's where everyone is! All the way from the Courthouse down to Sonic (unless the route has changed I think Sonic is just past the end.)
Anyway, not only is every square inch already spoken for, vendors have already set up. And pop-up tent frames, flatbeds, and pick-up trucks are no longer "enough."
People have started renting cherry pickers and window washing risers!!!
Who rents cherry pickers and window washing risers for a parade?
Too many people for this introvert. I'll stay inside with my AC and watch it on the TV.
Happy Independence Day!
