gimme some!

Marinette, WI 4th of July Parade

..the kids along the parade route (and
some of the adults, too) want the candy
that the parade participants throw to
them....New Orleans has beads, Marinette
had caramels and Dubble Bubble!! A picture
of my son doing candy duty is HERE
Oh, and my dad was a Boilermaker, and four
of my five brothers are Boilermakers; and
I'm voting for a Democrat...probably Kerry..


other sizes: small medium original auto

A floridian voting for Kerry? Hmmmm.... You wouldn't be one of those pregnant or dimpled or hanging chad folks, would you? This shot has a really nice Rockwell feel to it, don't you agree? That kid is classic.

Now this is Americana! Politics, parades and "treats." Politicians in George Washington's time used to "treat" the voters...with rum. Oh, including him.

Nice happy shot ... he's got my vote too ...

I graduated from Purdue, so I'm a "Boilermaker" too.

Beautiful expression captured here. Very nice candid shot. Did you get some candy as well, or were you too busy snapping pictures?

I love the look on the face of the child on the lap, he has "gimmie some" written all over his face.
