Mule Day, 2008
Yesterday was Mule Day. Susan and I rode in the parade through downtown Benson. It was fun. A few observations.
1. The Benson Chamber of Commerce was very friendly and fed us breakfast.
All the float riders and participants were fed scrambled eggs, biscuits, sausage, country ham, fruit, grits and bacon. They were all introduced.
2. Little Miss Benson and Miss Benson were charming. The prize for winning is that they have to kiss a Mule.
3. When a married lady sitting in front of me heard the comment about the prize, she said, “I kiss a mule everyday before breakfast, but I don’t call him a Mule”.
4. Waving by crowd participants decreases proportionally by the end of the parade.
Have a happy Mule Day.
