The Fourth in Ypsi

A piece of Americana, the 4th of July parade. The weather was beautiful, and the crowd was happy. The parade lines up near my house. I took some pictures as the paraders were getting ready and then went into downtown Ypsi to see the results. A lot of volunteers put in a lot of time to make something like this go. Sure, it's a small parade, but you gotta admire the organizational effort it takes.

Beezy's

I like to have breakfast at a great little place in Ypsi, Beezy's. The staff are friendly, the food is delicious, and the price is right. There are treasures everywhere if we can take the time to look.

A Little bit of Sunday photos

I took the camera with me downtown, but first I snapped a picture of the fence being put up by my next door neighbor. He's done a nice job. It will not only allow us both more privacy but will cut down on the cut throughs to our yards from Michigan Ave. Some people cut through his backyard and mine from Michigan Ave, making for a less secure environment.

The other picture is from the small park in between the library and Bombadill's. On this day at this time, it was undisturbed, although it is usually the site of various folks hanging out. It makes for a peaceful little snapshot.
