Beautiful Boat Parade

Last Saturday Jacksonville hosted the 21st Annual Light Parade featuring over 50 decorated boats cruising up and down the St. Johns River. Thousands of people lined up along both stretches of the city’s riverwalks to watch the boat parade.

Unfortunately Ginny and I lacked the energy to attend and take photos – but the website of the Florida Times-Union, the local newspaper, posted a photo feature of the event at http://jacksonville.mycapture.com/mycapture/folder.asp?event=79841 It is well worth your time to visit the three galleries supplied by photographers Becky and Tom White. Here is a sample of their work:

I spent Monday engaged in one of the world’s most boring human activities, hanging around a doctor’s office, tied up for six hours, waiting to drive a friend home.

Doesn’t God have anything better for me to do?

Apparently not.
