The Good Saturday

We had an exciting day this past Saturday. We were able to go down to Indianapolis and watch the Memorial 500 Parade in the downtown. We met some friends, and sat in the middle of Vermont Street watching the parade go down Meridian.

The weather cooperated nicely. It took awhile for the parade to get to us. Lucky we brought bubbles....





The parade was pretty cool. The kids enjoyed the big balloons. I enjoyed the cars. We were able to get out of the area around 2:30 in the afternoon.



We visited with our friends at their house in Fishers, and got back home late to see our front yard under water. according to our neighbor, we only had 0.8 inches of rain, but it came in a flash. And since our ground is pretty well saturated, there weren't too many places for it to go. Here is a picture looking to the north.



And here is a picture from near the house looking to the east. Pretty soggy out there....
