The July 4th Tradition: Doo Dah!

I drive the truck, while Martha Maas and Estelle Silberman ride in back. Ann Alaia Woods, Libby and Jayne Wetherholt, and Steve and Maria Rosenthal walked alongside and in front. Ann took the photos.


Did the 24th annual Doo Dah parade in Columbus on the 4th. It's an anti-establishment thing that began a number of years ago; we've marched several times, including the very first parade in 1983. This year, through Uptown Progressives, we went as "Citizens For Global Warming," borrowing a truck from a neighbor, loaded with banners and things praising the joys of hot weather. Had a blast. Local reviewer/reporter Richard Ades, in orange prison garb and on a motor scooter labelled "Scooter Commuter" zipped about us throughout the two-hour long parade.
