BAREFOOT

After a day of beachcombing forty miles from the end of the pavement, a eighty mile beach trip, we went to the Padre island Barefoot Mardi Gras Parade.

 

Held right on the beach, the tide is at it’s highest and some of the floats drove in the edge of the surf.Dancers and Mermaids were some of the highlights of the parade.

The first video is the color Guard of the Nueces County Mounted Patrol. As is fitting, Old Glory Started off the Parade.

Great music on this one.

   The attention to detail and the amount of labor involved was amazing.
