Blowing off the to do list, Joe and I jumped in the car Thursday afternoon and headed to St Marys for their quirky small town America Mardi Gras celebration. This is not New Orleans!We had a great time! Enjoy the pics, folks.

The Tractor Brigade that shows up for every parade for any reason.

Very cool. Very cool indeed!
Oh, this looks like a very good time indeed. Glad you had fun!
Looks great, Ronnie - bet you had a lovely time! I think the photos are fab - I like the one with all the drinks on, Pepsi, Smoothies etc, very cool! We are hanging up the 'to do' list too, and heading to Italy March 17th! Can't wait - I'll take pics!
I LOVE carnivals,festivals,parades and celebrations. This looks like a fun one. I kept drooling over the sunshine and greenery. So ready for winter to be done with!!!
Cheers, Shelagh
Looks like fun - Hey Ronnie - mark your calendar for the 1st weekend in May for The Shrimp Festival in Fernandina Beach (Amelia Island) just across from St Mary's - They do also do a Pirate Invasion (no pedalling pirates - sorry) & the shrimp is incredible as are the nearby beaches. Carnivore central looks like they left a few on the barbi a bit too long. I like the tractor brigade too - was Kenny Chesney singin' "She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy" in the background??
Thanks Ronnie, I love our little side trips.
xoxoxo
Great pics! I love the peddaling pirate and the bird the most.
Ah Ronnie, you didn't set me up for any smart-assed comments today! :-)
My kind of food!!!!
How fun!
I wish we had a celebration here. I want an excuse to wear a green wig!
