I Love a Parade

What better time to talk about parades than after the grandaddy of them all... the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.  Growing up, my grandparents lived in Buffalo and we lived in Syracuse.  That meant we had to get up early on Thanksgiving Day, drive the Thruway to Buffalo, and if we were lucky, we would arrive before the start of the Macy's Parade.    We ALWAYS arrived before Santa! That was most important.
