Blue Cavern

As every year, our small town had a 4th of July parade today...and it was a bit special as the county celebrates its 150th birthday this year...We had a good turnout for a town of 4,000 people and a very long parade (so long that my step-father got quite antsy at the end for it to be over with ) The weather was beautiful and all seemed to be in a celebratory mood...After the parade we had a little fair and tonight there is a street festival with music, food and music...

here are a few picture of today's parade..hillbilly style

people lining up the mainstreet before the parade


The start of the parade....flying of the US and Tennessee flag


we are still a bit behind the times...where cars are concerned....


the mountain resue squad


hillbillies celebrating on their truck


once a volunteer state, always a confederate rebel.....


Our own beauty Queen, the flag she is waving are Bloomers and yes she is holding a chicken in her arms


hometown Fireworks....made out of paper....

Wow Maureen !!! Thanks for showing us the pictures !!!
I hope you enjoyed your day !!!!!

Great pics! Thank you Mo!

Lovely pics Mo, it looks like a fab parade to wacth, a great day out.

Nice to see some sun too. I have forgotten what it looks like.

Uh-oh (again)...Hillbilly Alert

Looks like a nice day out (side) for y'all

I thought you guys would be older than 150 years though...aren't you over 200 years by now since you became independent?

I bet Krystal (Restaurants) would of been doing a roaring trade yesterday as everyone went in for their daily boiled beef hamburgers......or for their first date I mean, after a Krystal hamburger.....even the bad sex after would seem comparably good I bet.

Her county is 150...America is older

After a Krystal hamburger, you are too busy puking your guts out to have any kinda sex (At least that's what I've heard...I wouldn't know personally or anything)

I wouldn't know about sex after Krystal (and I most certainly don't know about bad sex ).....as I never go to Krystals..... ...no wonder I am not really considered a hillbilly or Tennessean

...no wonder I am not really considered a hillbilly or Tennessean

Thank God for that

.....as I never go to Krystals.....

Yeah?......then where did you take us when we were down there?

I'm in BIG trouble now aren't I?

I always thought that comes natural for you

I hope you all had a great 4th July!!!

A few of those hillbilly's must have joined our parades up here because ours are not much better, Only instead of horses we have harley's that drive by, much better and they don't make a mess all over the road

We had the Harleys, too Gerda...

I actually enjoyed it as it seemed that the town came together and just had a great time....I don't know maybe I am just a small town gal in my heart or have a bit of a hillbilly in me...no matter how much I try to hide it (BUT I do not like Krystal.....let me make that Krystal clear....

Thank you everybody for bearing with me pictures and your nice comments

Nice pics Maureen, looks like it would have been a fun day

BUT I do not like Krystal.....let me make that Krystal clear....

I am confused...so does that mean you had or didn't have Krystals for lunch that day?

Dyar

I had chick(en) burgers...not Krystal burgers There is a huge difference...(not in the size though apparently )

I think even you liked the one I gave you....but then of course....you always had a taste for breast...haven't you

...well only before I went on to be bottle fed Moey
