We have our tree. The fold-down seats worked and there's more room than ever small-car version. Then it was off across the river for the Chuy's parade. A contingent from Asleep at the Wheel was there, including Roy Benson. It looked to me as though it was Alvin Crow doing the honors on the fiddle. The true highlight was the Hardin-Simmons Cowboy Band. We followed it all the way from 11th Street by the Highway Building down to Sixth Street and then treated ourselves to a fine lunch at Manuel's. How happy a good band makes everyone! Turnout may have been the biggest ever for this event.
