On the Road To Colorado

Well! It was a long week in Northwest Oklahoma this week. We checked on friends and horses all this week and viewed Northwestern Oklahoma State University (NWOSU) homecoming parade, Saturday, November 1, 2008, at 10:00 a.m., around the downtown square in Alva, Oklahoma.

Seems like the crowds, bands have been shrinking over the last few years. I do have to say that the floats this year were something more than just a pickup pulling a flatbed. I have placed some movie clips of NWOSU's homecoming parade 2008 over at our OkieLegacy-YouTube site.

You can always tell when the parade comes to an end because they seem to reserve that spot for the horses and riders (See photo on the right).

The photo on the left is a digital snapshot of Alva High School marching band performing in front of the judges seated in front of the Alva Rialto Theater.

While taking the movie clips of NWOSU's homecoming parade, my SD camera card got full before the end of the hour long parade. Next time I will know better and carry an extra SD card with me.
