Floating
The family and I checked out the Days of '47 Float Preview Party at the South Towne Expo Center in Sandy.
If you are a regular parade watcher, you should check out the preview next year - it's really the best way to get an upclose look at these elaborate constructions. Here are a few of the more interesting floats:
This was the favorite float of my 5-year-old. I liked the retractable smokestacks with the orange crepe-paper flames coming out the top.
My 8-year-old voted for this one. He liked the astronauts and space aliens.
I'm still trying to figure this one out. I must have missed that part of Utah history where the pioneers fought pirate battles on the Great Salt Lake.
For those of you preparing your holiday plans for Thursday, the Tribune serves up this handy guide for the parade and other events going on around Utah.
