Rose Parade



http://www.tournamentofroses.com/photogallery/timeline/TL-1890s.htm

For our family, the Rose Parade has always been our far off dream. "Next year in Pasadena" was our family mantra. My dad and his sister grew up in Pasadena & have fond memories of the parade. I have never been to California yet. My brother & his wife went last year.

Carole King ...
My own house on high ground
Is the only place I want to be
So won't you carry me back to California
I've been on the road too long
Take me to the West Coast, daddy
And let me be where I belong
