Northern Lights Homeschool Marching Band:
Grand Haven Coast Guard Parade Aug. 5, 2017
Last Parade of the Season!
Look at all those bag-pipers!! They sounded great! |
Spring Lake High School--this parade had a lot of bands. My camera ran out of battery before Dd's band even got to us! |
Grand Haven is on Lake Michigan, so lots of boats and water vessels. |
The population of western Michigan has a LOT of Dutch immigrants--- I have no idea why, but that's the fact! |
................
We have 1 parade a year in our town.... the Christmas Parade, that's it, and it's never very exciting.... well, unless your 4yrs old or younger ;-p

You might find some answers to the Dutch Heritage by visiting Lynn Austin's Blog & reading her research on the book Waves Of Mercy, which is, btw, set in Michigan about Dutch immigrants! ;) I finished that one on Wednesday. I just love her books. :)
