Mount Dora kicked off Independence Day festivities with a parade down Donnelly St. on Tuesday morning.
Some of my favorite quotes from the crowd:
“I can’t hear you over the freedom ringing so loud!”
“In case you thought Duct Man was done, here’s more Duct Man!” P.S. Thanks for the dollar!
“It’s so hot out here we’ll have to lick the candy off the street.”
Kid: “More dum dums?” Dad: “Yes, that’s the ___ party of Lake County.” (I’ll let you make up your own mind which one he said ;-)
