I heard a rumor that they postponed the Long Beach fireworks until tonight (Sunday). Can anyone confirm or deny?

Great parade! My first one here in MC. Saw and talked to Adrienne, but missed seeing the rest of you. We walked the entire route. Our neighbors just brought us over some of their barbecue (they have been grilling for two days)! What great neighbors we have!

What happened to the front row seat at Sahara? My husband says I'm a WIMS "groupie", and I didn't want him to make fun of me for it again. (Not that it's a bad thing, though  ). I think have a photo with Dave...may have to crop and zoom in to see him. |
