Event: Hutto Old Tyme Days Parade
Date: 18-Oct-03
Location: Hutto, Texas
Description: As parades go, this was another short one.  

In attendance were John S with his M35A2 and trailer combination, Tim W with his 1941 Willys, and Jeni L who rode shotgun with Tim.  Although the parade was short, the crowd was rather large and the route took the vehicles right through the heart of event activities.  With Tim and Jeni in the lead, John was faced with maneuvering his rig down the dirt road route and in between vendor tents set up on either side.  As the crowd pressed in, they had to be cautioned to watch out for the truck due to John’s limited visibility.  Although concerns about someone in the crowd getting caught under the wheels made for a few white-knuckle moments, the parade went off without a hitch.  

Afterwards, John, Tim, and Jeni made it over to a classic car show which was being held at a local car dealership in conjunction with the other festivities.  Although not technically part of the show, the military vehicles managed to pull a fair number of admirers of their own.  The locals rolled out the red carpet for this one and finding free food was nice fringe benefit for participating.
