Uh, mom's quote (7/24/01):

"Before the parade started.  This horse gave the boys such a good time.  He made a big pile of doo in the middle of the street.  After that, the boys made bets on whether the wheels, hoofs and feet of the paraders would step on the pile."

Packing up the balloon

Stopped off to feed the marmots again.  "The boys each had a bag of whole wheat bread cubes, peanuts in the shell, peeled baby carrots, and 1" lengths of celery.  To the boys' disgust, the marmots seemed to like the celery best."
