What would 4th of July be without a parade? Every town big or small has one, and they are the best place to score some candy and people watch!
This year we hung out at the Grandville City parade and they had some great new attractions this year. As the local Harley Davidson dealer with about 30 of their constituents rode through, there was a faithful husband and wife evangelistic team working the sidelines with the ever effective “ALL SINNERS WILL BE DESTROYED” pole sign complete with scripture reference of Psalms 94:23. Just in case some deemed that too harsh, they tattooed the other side with the hope message of “REPENT AND LIVE”.
In an attempt to be sure everyone had a spiritual option, this years parade also included a float from the local witches association flanked by none other than stereotypical black dressed, green faced maidens with pointed hats and all! How much fun if we could have set up a cage match between the two polar opponents at the end of the route?
All kidding aside, it’s been a great day off and shortly we will head over to an awesome party with a pig roast and a bocce tournament that I hopefully will dominate!
God Bless America
