Our extended family used to go to Seaside Oregon every year on the weekend thay had their annual car show. Fun times walking along the beach, exploring the small galleries in town, and cheering for the Classic Cars and Hot Rods parade on Sunday. We celebrated our folks 60th Wedding Anniversary there in 2004. I thought about this memory when I walked by all the empty chairs people have lined up along Bothell Way this morning, all ready for our 4th of July parade tomorrow.
