Pleasure Island Christmas Parade

Hello again,

What a weekend on Pleasure Island! It all started on Friday night with the Pleasure Island Christmas parade. For such a small island, they really do put on one heck of a good parade.



Attached is a short video type presentation of the parade done by my good friend and co-worker, Sandra Hall. (Many of you may know Bill and Sandra Hall. They live just up the street on Fort Fisher Blvd. and have come to many of our neighborhood activities.) She does an excellent job at these things. Take a look and you feel like you were there.

On Saturday, we had the Floatilla. We watched it down on Canal Street. Got'em On Live Bait Club had a super party with dinner and drinks right there on the water. A good time was had by all and the boats really went all out this year with decorations. I'm not sure, but I would guess that 25 or more boats went past us. Many spun around right in front of us, showing off their decorated boats.

There was also a cookie exchange party in the neighborhood. That was fun also. Thanks for Kris Bell and her husband Richard for hosting that event.
