All the rain wasn't enough to wash away the socially distanced 2020 Kolacky Day Parade, as the route was changed to wind through the City of Montgomery this afternoon. It was nice to see all of our neighbors out in their driveways waving at the parade participants. But if you blinked it was over, but that isn't such a bad thing either with how muggy it is out.
