Tournament of Roses China Air Float

How it looked on the parade route.

The second of two floats that Donna & I got to work on was the China Air Float.  On this one Donna put the popcorn on the bells while I got to put pistachio shells in somewhat hard to reach spots on the trees.  No matter which job you got, your "keepsake" from the float was glue stuck on your hands.  Yes, you could use - and they recommended - gloves.  May I suggest you try to pick up and align a kernel of popcorn or a pstachio shell with gloves on.  Go ahead, try it! See...easier to live with the glue!  But it was fun and rewarding to see it on the float.  David

And on the float



Obviously, those pistachio shells are too well aligned to be the ones I stuck on.
