Montrose Fair/ Rodeo Parade

July 24, 2010.
The day started off with beautiful sunny skies and cool temps. We got out early to go into the town of Montrose to watch the parade for the fair and rodeo that starts today.
We parked on Main Street about 9:30 and looked around for signs of a parade. We were told the parade would be at 10:00. There weren't many people around. We walked into a local breakfast joint and asked about the parade. They advised after pausing that yes today is the day of the parade. So we sat outside and had some breakfast as we waited.
Around 10:00 the parade started with the local police blocking Main Street. 

I gotta tell ya it was the most pathetic parade we have ever seen! 

But it was fun anyway as we got a chance to talk with some of the locals and explore some of the shops on Main Street.

Afterwards we did some shopping in town and picked up some more of the Olathe Sweet corn. Back home it was getting warm and humid. We ate lunch and took a short afternoon nap. After dinner we attended the park's "ice cream social" and enjoyed talking and meeting folks.
Just another leisurely day, enjoying the RV lifestyle.
