Well, ducks have feathers too, don't they? LOL
This Sun. is going to be the 2nd. Annual Duck Race, but the weather doesn't sound too good. We had winds today up to 50 mph & hail.
So, I wanted to share some pics. of last yrs. We have car shows, concerts on the green every week, and it's nice to see people we went to school with that didn't leave here too. Alice

Went to the duck race today, it turned out to be a nice day.
To tell you what it's all about. You buy a duck for $5. numbered.
They dump them off the bridge and the first 10 to make it to the finish line win a prize. 1st prize was a trip for 4 to Disney World, Fla.
There were 25,000 ducks sold. Profits go to local organizations.
It's a fun day with a D.J. playing 'YMCA' ect. All kind of vendors, had my first fried-dough and stood on the bridge to take pics.
