Each year the neighborhood holds a BBQ. It begins with the kids parade. Sometimes they decorate their bikes and sometimes they just ride them. The parade route is about a block long (slightly downhill) and it takes about 15 seconds for the oldest bunch. The younger ones haven't learned to rush through everything in life and stretch it out to a couple of minutes. The first two pictures are the parade participants and the third is the spectators. Aside from the yummy burgers and dogs (see the official Q chef in the fourth picture), there is a BBQ contest for the adults to participate in and/or judge. This year's theme was seafood (not too exciting for someone like me who doesn't like seafood, but oh well). We met a few of the neighbors we hadn't met yet and enjoyed conversations with some we talk to often.
The parade reminds me of the parades you used to organize on Ridge Drive.....remember??? Looks like lots of fun & I'm with you on BBQ seafood....give a dawg any day! :)

That looks like so much fun and I would have enjoyed the seafood! I like that Kael took "toots" along for the parade ride!

Looks like it was such a nice day for a BBQ. I'm with you, I could skip a seafood BBQ. The parade looks like a lot of fun.
What a great idea. Love the thought of a BBQ. What a great way to meet everyone. Glad the weather was nice.
