One of the best reasons to live 5 blocks from Grand Ave? Grand Old Day. It's basically like having the State Fair take over Grand, except for the rides. Did you know it used to be Grand Old DayS? It used to be both on Saturday and Sunday, but now it is just for one day. Maybe because the residents got sick of it. We lived on Grand for 3 years so we got to experience it in our front yard. Needless to say, it was a bit hard to take naps on that weekend. But we loved it!
This year, we only had time to check out the morning events. Here are some fun pics from the parade:
