Middleton’s Heart of the Valley Days

Before heading off to the beach we went to see the Heart of the Valley Parade in Middleton — to see what the town had to offer and also to bake in the sun.

Like I mentioned earlier it was hot and La Niña doesn’t do well in the heat. We stayed for the parade, the firefighter demonstration and part of the dog training demonstration. We left before the end of the demonstration lest anyone get a perforated ear drum from La Niña’s screaming.

Below is the Middleton Town Crier and his accomplice. I can only marvel at how much terrible hot misery this poor lady must have been in. Beyond sporting gloves, petticoats, a full dress, a hat, boots and a blouse, she was also wearing a wig!

The border collie puppy is named Duncan. He came over to say hello to La Niña when he should have been doing his training exercises. I swear she is a dog whisperer.
