4th of July parade, Hot Springs, SD

It's always fun to see the local fire engines in the 4th of July parades.

Wildland engines from the State of South Dakota led the fire truck portion of the parade.

The Hot Springs Fire Department brought out their finest antique apparatus.

It was a hot day and the kids enjoyed being wet down by the remote controlled front-mounted nozzles.

I'll thank Firegeezer for the idea, but if you have photos of engines, preferably wildland, in your 4th of July parade, send them to me. I'll try to post a few here. To email me, scroll down to the bottom of the column on the left, to the "About Me" section, and click on "View my complete profile".
