The Parade

In our little people’s republic commune, there is an annual July 4th parade of golf carts.  Using golf carts makes it a holy event.  In the time we’ve been here and apparently for preceding years, everyone is encouraged to decorate their golf cart in traditional 4th of July fashion, and drive in the parade which winds  around the community.  There is a prize for the best decorated cart.  But, this year it changed.

The July 4th parade will have a ‘theme’ this year.  Participants are to decorate their cart, not to commemorate Independence Day, but their favorite movie.  How’s that for patriotism.

I’ve never participated and planned to not ever participate.  But I’m thinking about it now.  Because no one really knows what my favorite movie is, I can select any movie I want.

I’m thinking ‘Fifty Shades of Grey.’
