Labor Day ~ Virginia City NV parade

Our Labor Day was spent at Virginia City's parade.  The old streets were full of people and automobiles.  There were new autos,

old autos,

hot rods,

all kinds of protection,

horses,

and a camel! 

The fine citizens of Virgina City turned out in their Sunday best.

The local Civil War re-enactors came. 

A battle was fought on main street.

(Not all the costumes were historically correct!)

Several volleys were fired.

The lines slowly moved closer.

It was loud.

It was smokey.

But in the end...no one was seriousely hurt.

At the close of the day, the sun was shining, the mountains were beautiful, and a good time was had by all.
