Ready for the Parade

The horses name was also my late grandma's name...Jewel. Jewel and her owner were all dressed up to take part in a local towns Christmas parade.

I didn't get to see the parade, because I was on KP (kitchen patrol) at our church. We were cooking and serving 30 people who work at our day care center. It was a long evening. We didn't work hard, but we did work from 3 p.m. until 9 p.m.

I had to crop the picture more than I wanted to, because, no matter how pretty Jewel is...she had to leave a "deposit" on the pavement, and nobody needs to see that.

Extra picture is of Ed, a bagpiper who was also going to be in the parade. Nothing like a man in a kilt.
