as people got tired and left the front, i was able to start gettiing closer to curbside and start getting a few shots of the marchers on street level and floats

don't ask me what mr peanut has to do with thanksgiving or christmas, other than the company sponsors him

and hello kitty

and poppa smurf, no not the one on my shirt


if you choke a smurf, what color does he turn??

 

[gary]

kermit takes flight

and i really wish i could have been curbside to photo this, this is ohio state university at miami, and they had a drumline that was just putting it down for the crowd, and the sound reverbs mighty in those building canyons

THANKS ALL, trying to finish this out today


no idea who this is, probably just should have asked someone around me, as they seemed to think he needed strong cheering

Had to do some real digging through some flickr threads, but it is Joba Chamberlain. ; He is a pitcher for the Yankees.

I also found the group on the street scene float is Cobra Starship (never heard of them) and I think the guy on top of the gingerbread oven is Scotty McCreery (country music star).
