BASS FESTIVAL PARADE/RARE UNICORN

Two weeks ago our little community had an extra 25,000 humans or so millin' around the streets over a three day period. They were here for the Rio Vista Bass Festival. Dad stole borrowed my spy camera and took a bunch of photos so I could see what I was missin'. A real sadist he is. I didn't get to go because of the many horses in the parade and food being sold along the street. Those Euro-dogs have all the fun. Dad said that he saw one dog.


Where are the spots? Aren't fire dogs suppose
to have spots?

Not fair! Not fair! But I guess he comes with the truck.

Some other dogs started to run amuck on the midway, were caught and had to stay in a big netted area. Arf! Arf!


Bad dog, bad dog, what's ya goin' to do?

And of course there was the midway and all the rides.


Where is Mr. Beuller? Anyone? Anyone?


Vendor Lane



Yummy?

Mom and Dad were real lucky. They got to see a real live unicorn but no Irish Rovers.


No Lady G.

There were a lot of neat lookin' horses and wagons.






And there were lots of Shiners, Dad said.


They do a lot of nice things for human puppies.


Where are Burt and Ernie?

A big duck blind blind duck. Guess it is huntin' season. Awfully hard to miss that one.


Then there were fireworks. Dad took me in my little green machine (golf cart)to a special place where we could watch the pretty lights and the booms weren't too loud for me.


That's it?


Pretty lights. That's more like it.

On the way home from the light show we saw a huge walkin' tanker truck or something like that. It reminded me of when Dad and I listen to his tape of The War of the Worlds.


Take me to your leader.

As we continued on home I was lookin' for one of my fav spots.....


Ahhhh...

Even though the human-made light show was neato I still think Ma Nature does the best.


Mother Nature is the expert.

And of course, there was the fishing part.


Bet the cats would like this festival!


Partial sturgeon. Heard somethin' about caviar.


Stripper Striper

Dad didn't get very good pics of the fish. I wasn't there to tell him about the glare from the sky, the reflections of the humans, etc, etc. He should have taken me along!
