One thing that mid-Michigan doesn't have that da Eastern U.P. does is the truly off-the-wall Fourth of July parade. Every parade has the fire trucks - but how often do the volunteer firefighters get to douse the crowd as they go by?
These guys gets serious about it, ya know, eh?
Ya gotta be ready if you're gonna be standing along Newberry Avenue in Newberry.
At least these guys didn't take part in da tradition. Business is good, eh?
It wasn't just the firefighters and the honey dumpers. Nope, the Newberry High School Marching (Riding on a trailer?) band played at both the Newberry and Curtis parades.
There was a definite sense that it was the time to get dressed up and let loose, eh? After all, you let the Franklin stove finally go out on the Fourth of July, so let's celebrate!
It won't hurt us to go to Curtis! Young families make the scene!
Still can't figure out if the car's done in rust or camo. Doesn't matter - same effect, eh? Add the snowplow and the roadkill, and you get a true expression of da culture youse don't get nowhere else, eh?

I can't tell if that's a Cavalier or an AMC of some kind. At least it'll keep those headlights!
