4th of July

 Red, white & blue adorned downtown Kirkland
hundreds if not thousands of people lined the streets 
for Kirkland's parade
Joe remembers riding in the rumble seat of a grandparent's car


This cow brought to mind the butter cow at the Ohio State Fair
Lots of DeLoreans - more than half the 
existing 175 DeLoreans are in the Northwest (source)
Politicians walked, rode in cars & this independent candidate rode his bike
This float of mermaids advertised "Liberty, Justice & Hair for All"
(hair extension business)

This is Seahawk country - many vehicles showed off their Seahawk paint jobs
Can you see the little boy behind the man? 
Hands over his ears, he must have had enough of this very noisy Seahawk motorcycle

Kenworth trucks are made in nearby Renton 

This little car came through several times 
to encourage people to vote for their favorite float #floatvote

Marina Park was full of people enjoying the beautiful day
Music was playing
Food trucks were busy
People staked out their places for the fireworks

We had a spectacular display
The moon was beautiful too
We could see Seattle's fireworks in the distance
