Anyone else watching? DH worked for the Parade Studio as a carpenter & automater for 5 years until he had to stop this September after a tumor in his hip made him unable to walk.

He did most of the lighting, sound & automation for the new floats this year, including the Build a Bear & Snoopy's house on the Peanuts float.

The parade & costume crews wore pins in his honor during set up last night & this morning. The Hallmark float has a stocking on the off tv side with his name on it & his work hammer in it that will ride down the route this morning.

We are watching. I liked the Gloria Estefan songs at the beginning. Last night right before bed I had her songs in my head, so hearing them this morning was great.

Is on both. But NBC doesn't have the parade until it reaches the end of the route at Herald Sq.

Ok, so that is why it starts later! And I am not crazy

They've got better camera angles on the floats & all the performances so I usually flip back & forth.

I woke up early so I could watch it. I've watched it every year with my family. Its tradition - hot cocoa, a big blanket on the couch and the parade on the tv.

What a beautiful tribute to your H. I'll look out for it!

He must have been a really special person for so many people to want to include his memory today. I'm waiting for it to start here on NBC, our CBS station plays the local parade.

One of my former students is marching with the U of I marching band just before noon. I doubt I will see him but I want to try and catch it.

It's tradition for us to eat cinnamon rolls and watch the parade. NBC streaming just keeps returning an error so I'm streaming on CBS.
