Thanks for the pics, Allen!

This, by far, was the strangest parade I have ever marched in.

A family reunion, fog, new faces, a Fender cadence, fireworks (kinda), a medical emergency (glad to see that you were fine, Candi. See you next week), and the usual over-the-top crowd. But, hey, that's Mardi Gras!

Thanks to all who were there.

One more parade to go on March 5. Looking for a full contingent to show what GCS can really do. TV time.

Come join us!

We thought that depending on how early we get done and can get out of the Strand that we might host a gathering at the house if anyone is up to it. Of course we could always amend that and stop at BW3s or Freebirds on the way home too. :)

I'd prefer BW3's...alot lighter on the stomach at 10:30+ which is when we'd probably be getting there!

I'm glad Mardi Gras in Galveston was a success for GCS. Thanks to Allen's pictures looks like it was a lot of fun!
