A snapshot of community and country

No matter how the town has grown or changed, the Fourth of July parade is a constant, a slice of Americana that for a couple of hours on Coeur d’Alene’s “Main Street” all of the things that our community and country once was and still is, is right there enthusiastically displayed in red, white and blue.

I’ve loved this parade since, as a schoolgirl in the 1960s, our family watched from our front porch on Ninth and Sherman, and then, through the years, with my own children and grandchildren. The Fourth of July has always been my favorite holiday, and the parade represents treasured memories.
