Once a year my small hometown of Browerville, MN has their Browerville Days celebration.  Former graduates and residence travel a long ways to come back to Browerville for the celebration.  I talked to one person in the Military and stationed in Italy.  Another couple who live in Omaha, and one person from Chicago just for example.

Yesterday it was raining and cold but that did not keep too many people away from the Street Dance.  Earlier in the day I played some of the worst softball in my life. (I had one hit in three games). 

My kids took part in some kids games during the morning.  Chase, my 5 year old son, took third in the kids tractor pull, his cousin Ashton took 1st for the 3rd straight year.

In the evening we watch the parade. I have never seen so much candy throw out in my life.  (I need to hide that for sure).

All in all its fun to reconnect with some old friends. I also did pick up a good potential customer, so that's all good. Today we play co-ed softball.  We took 3rd in this tournament last year, so hopefully we can make a run for the championship today!
