Growing up in NY, they were few and far between.
The little town next to us has a huge week long 4th celebration. Its amazing how many people you can squish into such a small area at once

What I loved about the "small town America" type parade was the respect. There were several different entries in the parade of military veterans, mia/pow, pow biker, vet home, etc.. EVERY time one went by, the crowd stood up, and saluted, clapped and cheered. That respect is something you rarely see anymore. Made me love our small town area that much more.
