Roger has been working on his church’s float for the past month on the weekends. Here he is in his Elton John best in front of their finished project. So we saw the beginning of the parade, the motorcycles, at the beginning of the route at Normal street. We then walked the length of the parade route along University Ave and down 6th avenue to Balboa Park, almost two miles, and watched the remaining floats pass by. Rogers was one of the last and I almost didn’t recognize him because he wasn’t wearing his googly glasses. Whew, after walking all that and then back home, “I’m still standing.”
