It's Memorial Day.....Parade Day....in Small Town, U.S.A.! And this is why I love Small Town, U.S.A.!
Comin' from a big city like Dallas, I totally revel in the simple small town atmosphere! It's not glitzy, it's not super-polished and hyped--and what's so refreshing to me is that they don't even pretend to be! What's even better is that they don't even WANT to be!
What it is--is a fun and familiar and full of families and "blink and you'll miss it!" kinda thing that's just enough to bring on some smiles and some band music and some honk-honks...
And some waves and some hoots n' hollers....
It's where you say hello to the folks you haven't seen all winter and carry on with some good old-fashioned flag waving! And thank God for America and those who have given their lives to protect our precious freedoms! I say bring on Small Town, U.S.A.!
