You Gotta Regatta!!!!!

Every summer, my favorite town, Madison, (right across the river from where I live) hosts the Madison Regatta. It's a huge event with all kinds of fun stuff and a hydroplane race. It's a lot of fun....much like what you see on my favorite movie...Madison! We headed down there last Thursday so we wouldn't miss anything. Friday, we had a wonderful day of boating on the Ohio river. We both got a pretty nice tan. I'm officially back to looking like a "Megxican." (what a goofy pet name) Friday evening we headed downtown for the parade. This was Woodz's first Regatta parade. We went to see the hydroplanes, but ended up loving the Shriners.

We saw shriners driving everything! Including....toilets!

This dancing man is there every year....he sure does know how to shake his hips.

Steven asked...."Why did you put a picture of a van in there?" Notice the head poking out!

There were men traveling up and down the road selling blow up toys and cotton candy. We couldn't resist when he yelled out, "It's yummy for your tummy."

We couldn't resist getting our picture taken with the old Miss Madison. It was in second place this year!

These boats didn't win, but it's a good picture. If you look in the background, our reception site is on top of the hill.....just below the bridge in the picture.

Here's the wonderful Miss Madison in all her glory!
