Went to the Veterans Day Parade and community covenant. The parade was pretty cool, the kids seem to have a good time and it was an all-around small town sort of event. There were a bunch of WWII veterans there and we owe those people a great debt of gratitude.
Afterwards there was a “Community Covenant” signing that signified some sort of community support for the military. We don’t really have a military base in close proximity but it is always nice to show support for those that serve. All of the City Councilman were called up to sign the document – well all but me for some reason – and many of the County supervisors. I don’t take myself so seriously that it offends me but I would rather have not sat there for an hour and a half if they weren’t going to have me participate. I use the weekends to catch up on my business since I spend so much time during the week on City matters and those hours are precious. Next time I’ll attend the parade and get on with it.
Hope everyone that went had a great time!
