Color guard to open the parade

Friends of William S. Hart Park float. Hart was a silent-screen cowboy pictures
star who donated his estate to create the park.

Painted patriotic pony!

Float promoting a local production of the Wizard of Oz

Float for a local Philly cheesesteak shop opening at the end of the month. The guy
in the Owens jersey is dressed up as a giant Eagle.

Democratic Alliance for Action. Donna and I found it amusing that apparently
Jon Stewart is now considered a great Democratic figure, along with FDR and JFK,
who also had placards.

The Unitarians were well-represented, but the Mormons had the largest group
in the parade.

Yay Napalmmobile! Part of the 'Support Your National Guard' group.
