Once again I volunteered to help out with the oranges.

I had my head inside the large crates.
Employees working to
gather the flag.
Liz and I decided to walk back instead of climbing into the box truck. I got all my steps this morning and enjoyed seeing the rest of the parade. Remembering participating with the royalties.
I was ready for a nap. Maybe a couple of movies then relax the rest of the day. I am celebrated right out. This is one of my favorite holidays of the whole year.
