Living in Dacula Ga for the last 9 years I never knew how many people came out for the annual Dacula Memorial Day Parade until today. It was so impressive to see so many people come out in support of our troops and celebrate our freedom. I'm almost ashamed that I never went to the parade until this year. Driving through Dacula it was amazing to see all the people.....kids and parents and grandparents. It's billed as the largest Memorial Day parade in the southeast. The weather was kinda soupy but the rain held off except for a few sprinkles. The parade started in the Hebron Baptist Church parking lot and ran all the way down Dacula Rd into the downtown area. There were several veterans in the parade including WWII and Vietnam Vets. Lots of old cars and tractors and a marching band and they were all throwing candy, which my daughter thought was the coolest thing since Halloween is a few months away. This was her first parade and it made a big impression......mostly because of the candy! She hasn't eaten any of it yet but mommy and daddy have!!

Here are some sights from the day's festivities...
