****Tomorrow evening we'll be attending Mass at St. Al's at Gonzaga University in Spokane.
*****After grabbing a quick bite to eat at Dick's, our favorite drive-in, we'll be heading to the 71st Armed Forces Torchlight Parade which is held as part of the Lilac Festival in Spokane.

It's a wonderful parade and this year we did something we've never done before - purchased seating in the bleachers. Whooee! Just like rich people!!

In past years the opening of the parade is marked by a B52 buzzing the downtown. Trust me, when that humongous plane flies low over the buildings, it is a sight to behold.
