Niska-Day 2006

Today was Niska-Day 2006—the 25th annual Niskayuna Community Day.

The good news is it didn’t rain on the parade. The bad news is it was raining on and off when we tried to take in the festivities at the high school.

The day will be capped off, as usual, with a fireworks show tonight. Nolan has always been scared of fireworks. We thought we might be able to talk him into it this year, which would be great since they’re being hyped as the biggest the town has ever seen. Unfortunately, he’s got a cold and went straight to bed. So I wound up walking up to see them by myself. And they were pretty cool.

Anyway, here are some highlights from the parade and the high school. Click on a thumbnail for a larger picture...
