Where in the World Isn't Bob Saget?

Last night we had a staff holiday party. Every year a couple in the community hosts the entire district staff. They provide all the food and drinks. Their home is in a old theatre above businesses on the main road in town. It's a really unique place. Elvis actually performed at the theatre in 1964, and he signed the wall. They have the signature framed.

So happy you found time to see the parade as it always looks like a fun time

I Love this!! (My favorite was the person dressed up as a snowman, driving his decorated tractor.)
P.S.: When I first started watching, I saw the police cars with their blue flashing lights on -- and I thought they were there to round up drivers, driving on the wrong side of the street. (But I guess they gave them all a pass, because better viewing of the actual parade route was on the opposite side.
)

But is a lot more interesting with the sound turned off. What is that all about?
Annual tractor parade around the island to raise money for charity.

When you're the leader, you don't have to follow.
I watched the first 30 or so seconds with no volume (I do everything with no volume), and I initially thought this was a tragedy unfolding. Clearly not.

No, I meant with the blasting of horn constantly especially that one with the police siren. It just seems like to much of a good thing. That parade is nice and very worthy, but the noise, to me, would be quite unpleasant to hear at such a high and constant level.
I think the video makes it seem louder than in person in a wide open area. .
Also don't quite understand why you post got a laugh emoji

Oddly enough, I liked hearing the sirens, etc. in the background. It added to the experience, like being there in person, watching all the tractors on parade. I know that any local town parade I've been to (in years past), always had sirens sounding from police cars and fire department trucks. Guess I just associate the noise as part of the event.

I’m annoyed. I ordered white drapes.
From website:
This is what they sent me. (On left. Yes, seriously.)
And now it’s costing me $14-something to return them. First world problems, I know, but we spent 14 hours at the apartment today, and couldn’t even hang the drapes. Grrrrrr.

Why did you have to pay to return when it was their mistake?

I’m speaking online with a rep right now. They’re saying the colour is “dove white”.
Yeah, sure. The colour is grey. Pure and simple, ugly, dishwater grey.

Can you threaten to tie things up with a credit card dispute? Be sweet as pie when doing so
