the ? annual tybee island beach bum parade











I know.....kind of crazy. The whole town turns out hours before the actual parade starts with the most intricate and amazingly accurate water guns I have ever seen.
Thousands of people lines the streets and carry buckets of water from truck beds lined with plastic and cooled with dry ice.
This is a huge event.....we watched from the third floor and stayed dry. By the time the parade finally rolled down the street Harry was through.....ready for bed. Next year he WILL have a water gun.
I guess it is good clean fun......just hope the adrenalin dies down and they are not running around at midnight still shooting their guns and hollering.
Never did see Jack Kingston. I presume he was ducking and trying to avoid the inundation.
lol......cathy

Right now he is a Congressman from this area. I can't believe you haven't heard of him.
