Christmas Parade In Richmond IN

Below you can watch part of the Christmas Parade in Richmond, which took place this past Friday night.  People lined the streets, in very cold temperatures, and though the quality of the video isn’t great, you can hear the excitement of the children as they watch the floats and mascots go by.  It was worth freezing to see.  And later we went to the Coop to purchase yummy snacks and hair ribbons- it was a fun night! For more pictures and video of the holiday season you can visit our Facebook site (GoWayneCounty) or our youtube site- also under GoWayneCounty. (see video below)

Today marks the 10th anniversary of 9/11 and there will be a memorial service held in Veteran’s Park, Richmond at 1:00 p.m.  At the same time all over the country bells will ring and sirens sound to remember those lost on a very sad day in our country’s history.

Below is a piece of that history which came to town this summer during the 9/11 escort in video.  However you commemorate this day in your lives and your families, let us all come together in a moment of quiet reflection and share our deepest wishes for peace as well as safety for all soldiers who are still in harms way. (see video from 6/2011)

Schools Close For a Third Day In Wayne County…As Ice And Snow Leave a Mess

As of 9:00 p.m. tonight just about every school in Wayne County had announced they were closing tomorrow.

Western Wayne Schools and Centerville Abington were two of the first, followed closely by Nettlecreek schools in Hagerstown and Richmond Community Schools (who listed their closings on the website).  Galileo Charter school and Richmond Friends School also listed closings.

After two days of ice, a snowy/ice mix and power outages all over rural Wayne County, some may be a bit tired of the winter wonderland.  And though I don’t like driving in this mess…I do still love the beauty of a snowy day.  The video below was taken today as the snow fell in our yard.  Be careful out there, drive safely and stay warm.

Richmond FreeRunning/Parkour (MidWestBoyz)

First team video for Richmond, Indiana. Near the end of the video it shows an underbar twice. I apologize for that, but it is 5:00 AM and my mind is hating me enough…lol. I have tried to make this video on 3 different computers, and this computer actually let me. Thank God and Stormy Rife!!!! :) So, here it is, and I hope you enjoy :D
