Best parade ever in Jim Thorpe

We had four people distributing candy, one filling the empty candy buckets, two carrying a banner that said “Carbon County Democrats,” and me driving the truck with a boom box on top broadcasting “Freedom” by Beyonce.  (My friend René figured out how to connect the boom box to the cigarette lighter; it also involved a cell phone, and it sounded great.)  


We got lots of cheers, thumbs up, friendly waves, and requests for Kamala Harris stickers.  The Republicans had three vehicles from which they threw candy.  What a dour and unhappy group of people.


I was wearing a Dolly Parton wig and a Trump supporter yelled, “Trans.  Harris will love you.”  I blew him a kiss, and I thought the top of his head was coming off.


It was a great day for the Democrats.
