Video Wednesday STAND STILL PARADE – Whalan, MN
One unusual parade
Having played in band all my life and participated in numerous of parades, this parade caught my attention. It has a Norwegian flavour too.
Linked from YouTube channel WILD TRAVELS
Norwegian Genealogy and then some
Norwegian genealogy guidance for English-speaking descendants—sources, methods, and real case work.
Living in Minnesota, I didn’t even know that this parade takes place. I have to read a distant cousin’s blog to find out something going on in my own state. Love to read your blogs. Keep up the great work!! Pray that someday I will be able to come visit!!
Hello Lynn.
Thanks for visiting. I am glad you enjoyed the video. This is kind of embarrasing, but you Write a “distant cousin”. Are we somehow related?
We are. I am the great grand daughter of Ben & Marie Larson/ Dybvig. Janet Larson that wrote the blog about visiting Norway with her husband is my 2nd cousin. Her father Mervin Larson & my grandmother Thressa were brother & sister.
I would love to email you some pictures if you would like to see them.
I sent you an email Lynn
