As I said in a previous PESO, Birthday Parties are a very big thing for grade school children in the suburbs. Big parties, at home or some special place, are unthinkable in these days of lockdown. Instead, now there are drive-by birthday celebrations. Friends of the birthday child have their parents drive them past the birthday kid's home, and they honk their horns, yell, wave and hold signs.
My neighbors' son had a birthday Saturday. There was a parade of at least 30 cars filled with classmates, and 7 pieces of apparatus from two local volunteer fire companies. Here are a few images of the parade: http://dan-matyola.squarespace.com/danmatyolas-pesos/2020/4/27/birthday-parade K-5 IIs, smc DA 18-135 mm F 3.5-5.6 ED AL [IF] DC WR Comments and criticisms are invited and appreciated.
