I arrived in Paris at 0830, found a parking spot run by the boy scouts, and had my chair out on the line in a heartbeat.

Tons of people, very long parade, and I took a lot of photos. As I sensed the parade was close to ending I boogied back to my truck to avoid the crouds heading to the fairground. No such luck.

I finally made it to the line forming for the biggest fish fry in the world, and it was long, over 200 people, and it took over an hour to get fish on my plate. This was an all you can eat event but I just had them pile it on and left without seconds.

Then I drove to Metropolis, IL and bought some supplies, and I'm now sitting in the shade at a cool rest area, on my tail gate, getting my drink on, and about to fire up some supplies.

I'll process the photos when I get home tomorrow.

Just living my life. This sure beats sitting in the big chair, watching Netflix in the dark, and crying...

btw: I did everthing I said I was going to do :-)
