This weekend's highlight was watching Burbank on Parade two blocks from our house. This parade is a Burbank tradition going back to WWII. It has a very small town feel to it -- float sponsors included the local senior citizen center, realty offices, and the karate place up the street. Parade "celebrity" participants included Ronald McDonald, Bugs Bunny, and Santa Claus (see I wasn't kidding about the "small town" thing). I loved the marching bands. There were lots of free handouts from people in the parade to people sitting along the street - stuff like bottles of water, food, stickers, etc. I thought we were on a prime corner for some free goodies but no. Then, at the last minute, a young guy on a scooter, came up to Lee and said "here you go, mister" as he handed him 3-4 postcards that said:
Lee wasn't too happy with his stack of Dr. Wall postcards but, hey, now we can't say we didn't get anything at the parade.

Dear Lee,
Please don't be embarrassed by your toe fungus- it's a problem a lot of men have. But thanks for the warning. I'll be sure to keep my shoes on if I see you going barefoot.
Sincerely,
Jen
