Town of 7000 in the postal district. About 1300 filled the town Square and along main road. More people driving by honking, cheering etc. Several other towns in the area similar turn out. Mostly younger.

I did not expect to participate at all since I don't get around well. The nephew got out the golf cart rigged up a bubble machine and 2 big coolers of water and a case of granola bars that we passed out to the crowds.
