Tempe Town Lake Boat Parade
A cool, calm evening, perfect for watching the boats go by. We were near the staging area.
The camera I used would only emulate ISO 400, so any movement was enough to blur things a bit. Still, I think you can get the feeling of being there.
The crowd on the bank pushed forward a bit as the boats finally straightened out and headed west toward the main stage area.
All kinds of boats were included. Paddle boats, row boats, sailboats, "go-fast, make-noise" inboards and little outboards. Several held just a couple folks and others were loaded with 15 or more.
And some were really elaborate.
The trees changed green to red, snowflakes twinkled...
And the fire department boat was a great crowd-pleaser with the snowman spraying the water in a rooster tail behind.
