Yesterday we went to the Bluebonnet Festival Parade in Burnet TX. I took many pictures and I will post a few at a time due to the speed of the connection. It was a great parade despite the fact there was only one tractor as opposed to Jefferson and no hydraulic cars as opposed to Weslaco!
After the parade we came back to Llano and after a couple of hours enjoyed a fine meal put on by the local fire department. It was more food than you can imagine and all of it was free. They were taking donations and I am sure it was successful for them to do so as this is an annual event. They had catfish and barbecue along with all the fixings-potato salad, coleslaw, beans, hush puppies and peach cobbler. Free drinks too including beer and margaritas as well as iced tea, both sweet and unsweetened.
And now for a few pictures:
Ice Cream anyone?
Or perhaps lemonade sounds better.
Ugliest tan attempt. It was orange. Does not look as bad in this photo as it really was.
Senior citizen of the year.
The only tractor in the whole parade!
The Beachers are a group of senior line dancers who do line dances throughout the parade using their chairs as props.
The Plungers do line dances while marching as well. Both of these groups were great!
The Burnet Bulldogs
Pretty Pony!
Really large H.E.B. cart!
