For those who haven't gone to the LBI parade it is a great parade. The crowds are super, it is well organized, LBI is a fun place and, Gary always gets us a good spot in the parade and finds a great place for lunch. Sometimes there has been a photo shoot. I have never done the Friday night thing in AC just because its Friday night. I also plan to do the DMA Satruday night dinner - then AC activities. I look forward to both - I just hope we have good weather. The parade is sort of a last event with the car for me before it goes into winter storage.
