Took Millie and Stone to the Parade in Rosehill Ks this weekend pulled the wagon for their local Coffee shop. My wife walked along in good spirit throwing candy to all the kids.

Long story short is sure is nice getting them out in public busy setting on occasion, there were so many wow's and oooo's and ahhh's about those "big/huge Horses" and so many people scrambling to the sidelines to get pictures of them.

On a side note the team did perfect no problems to speak of. Worst problem was a RR crossing we had to go over that ran at 45 degrees to the road was a "wide gap" in the track Stone tried to Balk for a second but Millie pulled him right over it and never missed a stride.

We did give out a few rides at the end to kids and families that flocked over to see them before I unharnessed at the trailer to go home. I just don't have the power to look at a 4-5 yr old child and say sorry we were just here for the parade, were not giving rides today.. You never know I may have made a future teamster that day.
