Labor Day parade
Every year I get to attend the Labor Day parade in Buckfield and write a story for the Sun Journal. I enjoy meeting people and watching the children react to the parade.
The weather was perfect with a clear blue sky and temperature in the 70s. Hundreds of people lined the street as bands, floats, fire engines,horses, antique cars and such rolled along.
After the parade we ate pulled pork sandwiches and pie,but we could have had Polish sausage lobster rolls, or hot dogs. It was a festive time.
My own favorite fireman rode the Sumner Engine and threw out mardi gras beads to the crowd.

That fireman is a cutie! Had fun with you today--am feeling full and happy after a good dinner of your corn, squash, carrots and beans.
Uncle T is looking sharp throwing that candy to the adoring masses.Sounds like everyone had a nice time.
