Cranberry Blossom Parade

We turned into cranberry blossoms as we waved in the Cranberry Blossom Day Parade at 12:30 p.m. in downtown Wisconsin Rapids. Participants and spectators gathered downtown for the parade along Grand Avenue from 11th St. to 2nd Ave. It was a "berry" windy parade, but enjoyable. We were blessed to have our float setup at 431 13 ^th St North which is the street of Judy Grossclaus. She and her son were outside watching the goings on, and when they overheard that we were in need of a bathroom, she graciously offered her house for "formals" changing and bathroom use if needed. As we visited with her, we found out that she makes it a tradition to open her house to visiting Royalty. What a super blessing for a super parade on a super day!
