I don't suppose the float designers intended for her to frighten parade-goers but I think it is fitting!Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04277121805280741949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13524464.post-52835553153459318652007-01-12T07:27:00.000-07:002007-01-12T07:27:00.000-07:00And Happy New Year to you and everyone else who st...And Happy New Year to you and everyone else who stumbles by here!Sallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00874162149979602139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13524464.post-29171141036916758412007-01-12T07:26:00.000-07:002007-01-12T07:26:00.000-07:00Hey Julie, Your note was so amazing, because that ...Hey Julie, Your note was so amazing, because that was EXACTLY, I mean EXACTLY, our experience. We'd gotten there about 4 am, and were just in a dumb and numb state and then....<br />"all of a sudden there was this towering benevolent nightmare out of nowhere, looming over me, blotting out the sun!" That's just how it was!Sallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00874162149979602139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13524464.post-14773115020996199762007-01-11T20:24:00.000-07:002007-01-11T20:24:00.000-07:00Hi Sally.

(I'm <b>so</b> happy you've uploaded so many shorts to youtube, thank you!...and I think that's where I found your blog.)<br /><br />Anyway, I live in Pasadena so of course we go to the parade. I had to laugh when I saw your picture of the 'mother nature' float, because it is the single image I'll remember from this parade. <br /><br />I was standing there facing east, watching only what was going, not what was coming — (some of the marching bands were so funny)...then I turned to look back and all of a sudden there was this <i>towering benevolent nightmare</i> out of nowhere, looming over me, blotting out the sun! The timing was perfect and I shrieked. <br /><br />Happy New Year!Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04277121805280741949noreply@blogger.com
