Electric Light Parade


Tonight Bryan and I drove the KVII float in the Center City Electric Light Parade. We were joined by Bryan's friend Corey and his son Cooper. I think Cooper enjoyed his first parade experience, but I don't think he realized how much work it is to ride in a parade. There are many people to wave at and one's hand really starts to tire after a bit.

Bryan did his part to spread Christmas spirit and even a bit of the Panhandle spirit. Bryan is fairly proud of this KVII 7 tire. Did you know that he built this beast? It's true! Bryan built this 7 to replace the original tire built by Charlie Patterson 20+ years ago. The original 7 was built and used in many KVII promos through the years. The 7 was seen rolling down the streets of Amarillo, on the Palo Duro Canyon Lighthouse, at Lake Greenbelt and many other Panhandle locations. Bryan is quite proud of the construction of this 7 - so it is only appropriate that we also posed for a picture in the 7.
