Default Our Clubs 4th of July Parade Float - Trying to get some Public Interest

Just thought I'd share a couple of pictures of the float some of us got together and built for our 4th of July parade here in Gillette, Wyoming. Quite a few total man hours but we thought it was well worth it after we got done and then saw all of the pointing and smiles in the crowd from the kids - ages 2 to 92

That is pretty cool.

I suggested to the club that we taxi a plane in the parade (with tethers for safety) but was only looked at like I was crazy.

Good idea.

Glad you guys like the float. It really was a crown pleaser and since the 4th we've already had another round of folks showing up to watch and get a chance to use the buddy box.
