Nevada Day Parade Part 2

Here are the pictures from the Nevada Day Parade:




This is what I was so excited to see. The truck with the ranger hat, eyes, and mouth. This is what everyone saw as the float came their way, and this is what people stopped on the street to pose in front of! We ended up tying for 2nd place.


The outhouse had to be my favorite thing on the float (except maybe my husband). A veteran stopped me on the street and explained that outhouses for women were marked with a moon. These outhouses had hooks on each side for women to hang their skirts and petticoats out of the way!


This is the timeline featuring each state park. I don't have a better close-up picture but I can find one later of the stamp designs.


All dressed up and official for the parade! I've never worn my official "flat" hat, but I have worn the tie before, when the governor and his crew came to the park to talk about the drought (what's a better location for that discussion than a dry lakebed?).
