you see the darnedest things


After dinner last night, Conrad and I took a little stroll around the neighbourhood to see how it was recovering from the parade and such.  As we were heading home, we caught sight of a slow moving procession heading south on Fair Oaks.  A police car in the lead, two vehicles trailing, and the South Pasadena float

from the New Year's Day Tournament of Roses Parade in between, slowly rolling along.

Years ago, in one of our first years here, Conrad and I had the happy fortune of seeing several floats roll past on their way to the warehouses on South Raymond.  This had that same little thrill, and how nice to see the detail so close!



Another Rose Bowl event all done, and Pasadena can go back to normal.  We'll take down the tree this weekend and bid farewell to a holiday season we'll happily put behind us.  And then it's onward with 2024!
