I can tell you this is an excellent idea....on the 4th I had
my daughter and 2 friends throwing candy off my M114.....in a
parade......several times they threw candy a little short......and kids
would run out to get it.....I saw this each time and came to a stop,,,but
it was a potential problem.....I have arranged in the future to have the
local Vietnam impressionists to accompany me with at least 4
people.....one on each corner.....
