Wellfleet's 4th of July Parade

The photographer takes a picture of the well-polished fire truck

How cool is it to get to drive down Main Street?

Chuck is always ready to make a statement

This is the only band in the parade

I'm not sure what this was

Or this - but it was entertaining

The squirting clam still makes its' appearance. This is an enduring Wellfleet tradition.

The backside of oysters

Moby Dick?

More than one boat makes a trip around the parade route.

Any excuse to drive around town

The V.I.P. welcome wagon

Avast

Another bushelhead

One of the most original floats. This is the first lobster trap float I've seen.

When you dress this way for the parade you can head straight for the beach afterward.

Fred Bell is a parade icon

A large group paid homage to Uncle Frank who passed the previous day.

And after 18 minutes another 4th of July parade is in the books.

Two of the happy parad -goers
