Well I am going to drive my truck in the Veterans day parade in a couple of hours I am really excited and my 91 year old step dad will be with me and he is a WW2 D-day survivor. WHen I get home I will post some pics
Got to go do one last check of the truck.

How cool is that, enjoy! Can't wait to see the pics

OK, We are waiting patiently!
I got screwed up today, had two doc appointment & thought I had a haircut, plus spent the afternoon waiting for the cable-guy.
About 4 o'clock I saw a trailer for the news & all of the Veteran's Day goings on film @ eleven? Then it hit me!

I had a great time. I drove about 65 miles total and the parade speed was 3 to 4 mph and I had no truck problems YIPEEE
When we got there I met up with a Vietnam vet and retired Chief Warrant officer who needed a ride and a active duty A1C from the air force who also jumped in my truck. Well we had a great ride lots of people were along the parade route. Its a day I will remember. It was a great first parade experience.
I really didn't get to take alot of pictures but here is what I have.



Me and Dad


A1C Collins and CWO Thompson




There was lots more!! Bands color guards and other vehicles. I just got too busy driving to snap any more pictures during the parade.

I got the feeling (all fuzzy) just looking at your pics, thanks for sharing them w/us!

Nice looking M37 and a GREAT way to celebrate VETERANS DAY!!!!

WOO HOO! GO AIR FORCE!! Airman Collins can ride with me any time! Heck, I might even let her drive.

All that aside, I'm glad you had a good experience with your first parade. Looks like you had much better weather than we did, too! It was 26 degrees here with a steady rain/snow mix during our ceremony. I can tell ya for sure that the mouthpiece on my bugle was ice cold!

Thanks, It was a great day and I am already making plans to do it again next year!!

Our weather in Tucson this time of the year is beautiful.
