Please don't rain on my Summit Hose Company 100th Anniversary Parade

Hoping the rain will hold off for the Summit Hose Company 100th Anniversary parade
Inclement weather interfered with a timely start for the Summit Hose Company's 100th Anniversary Parade on Friday, June 2. Scheduled to start at 6:30 sharp, the parade eventually started at 7:00 PM under pouring rain.

The Allegheny County Sheriff was near the front of the parade.

Summit Hose Company brought their 100th Anniversary birthday cake. Someone left a cake out in the rain, and I'll never have that recipe again.
