Who has a favorite Mendo 4th or Mad Cad memory?
Larry's ashes were riding with friends and family in the 2024. Mad Cad herself hasn't run in years and needed a trailer to ride through the Mendocino 4th of July parade she has long been the star of.

I’m looking for stories and photos about the Mendoico Parade and Mad Cad!   For Real Estate Magazine and mendocino.coast.news.  I have another fun one coming!  Larry invited me out to take pictures of his shop and do a story for the Advocate many years ago. Big regret that I thought I was too busy.

That would be priceless stuff as everybody on the Mendocino Coast, I always take a million photos of everything, like Wang in Caddyshack. Too bad. 

The big 4th of July Parade is coming up, so please send any photos and stories about Mad Cad and the parade.
