The Life of Cam: Cache Valley Cruise-In 2011

Cache Valley has a long standing tradition of hosting a car show the first weekend in July; it's been going on forever and it culminates in a parade down main street on Saturday night that pretty much shuts the entire town down. If I were just passing through, I'd wonder if all these people were off their rockers because both sides of main street - all the way through town - are COVERED with chairs, blankets, rope, or whatever else people can find to save themselves a seat. This usually starts a day or two before the parade as people want to get prime seating for the big event. This year we decided not to be one of those people and just find somewhere to sit right before the parade starts...wouldn't you know that we found the best seating we've had in 5 years? With 5 minutes to spare? We did go down to the fairgrounds which is where all of the cars are shown. Most of the really cool stuff doesn't actually drive in the parade so if you want to see something neat, this is where you must go. It so happened that Saturday was a whopping 98 degrees...it seriously took us 2 days to recuperate...I know, we are a little bit woosie.

This is grandma and Austin chillin' under the tree. They sat here the entire time we walked around..except for the two times that Austin told grandma he HAD to go #2 and then they waited in the line forever to get into the reisty bathrooms and then he didn't have to go.
