Centralia Halloween Parade

Just got home from the Halloween Parade in Centralia, IL. It was a nice parade. First we ran around to the food vendors and ate all kind of junk food, it was a nice fall day. Then we settled in for the parade, it only got down to 44 degrees, so it wasn't that cold. There have been times that it has been in the 20's by the end of the parade..brrr. The town of Centralia, (for those that don't live around here) has a beautiful Carillon. It is one of the largest in the world. So anyway, since it was Halloween the carillon was playing The Addam's family theme, the Munsters theme, and other halloween songs...which is very interesting to hear these songs played on bronze bells echoing through the town. There was even a Carillon "float" in the parade, that was from Ohio. You can see Batman playing them inside...awesome to see it in action. Home now and watching "The Cat People"....hope you all had a greatday!
