Independence Day in Skagway, Alaska, III

These pictures even passed the inspection of Mr. Blueberry Eyes.  I guess he thought they were cool enough that he agreed that I could share them!

 There were street entertainers.

 Then there was the egg toss.  Last year they broke a world record for the most people participating in the egg toss.  I love this action shot of Mr. Blueberry Eyes catching the egg that CM tossed to him.

 After several rounds, they had the contestants that were left turn lengthwise on the street.

 A team of girls won the championship.

 Then there was the tug-o-war.  Our kids, with a few more tossed in, formed one team.  They kept progressing through the play-offs until they actually won the championship! They were pretty proud of themselves.

 Julie and I didn't fair so well with our team.  We were soundly whipped!
