We’re sitting on a curb in downtown Pocatello waiting for a parade. Fortunately, lots of other folks are here waiting for the same parade, so we seem to be in good company! The Clydesdales of Budwieser beer fame are going to come down the street sometime in the next hour or so. I don’t know what else will be in this parade, but I’m prepared with digital camera and a prime parking spot. We’ll go from here to Sizzler’s for dinner once the parade has gone past.

The “big” summer festival is here in town today and tomorrow — hence the horses. This will be our only participation in the festival. Tomorrow we’ll go up to Idaho Falls clothes shopping. I need some new pants and we have a big need to go to Johnny Carrinos for lunch. So we’re headed to the Big City on a spending spree.

Meanwhile, the Tracker is still in the shop. The mechanic pulled the transmission from the car but hasn’t taken it apart, yet. I should know the damages on Monday or Tuesday at the latest. I can wait.

The crowds are growing. Vehicles are being moved from the street. Horses are coming!
