I get down there for the parade about every other year. Unfortunately, this is an off year, I'm working dayshift that weekend. It's always a good time. I dye my beard and hair white, wear a Santa hat and play Christmas tunes on the pipes, and have a ball. Hopefully, I'll be able to get back there next year. Next year, if anyone spots "Saint MacNicholas", come up and say hi.
This is a photo of me with #3 grandson at the parade last year.


Fortunately, I've found a local "gig" this year. My Lodge is participating in a "Dickens Night" event in a local town. It runs from 6pm to 10pm, so I'll head over there after work and have some fun.
