Exactly. My expectation was that the Reinharts would make a quick appearance and leave. I didn't even think it would be over an hour tops.

It's kind of appropriate that the Parade that Haley will be in ends right near where the Shindig map says "HALEY AAF" which evidently was the site of an airfield that was abandoned before any of us Dad Fans were born. I better go back and read those two, just to make sure nothing too embarrassing was in them. LOL. 
You're good Swanny, I made sure I didn't get you in trouble and I just got this email response from Harry:
Steve,
You got it. It's going to be fun, and quite a relief of sorts too. I'll bring some hula-hoops by that week. Thanks for the footage from these guys, it's great. Nice posts by Swansteel as well. Wow, some people are really doing a trifecta!
So as an added incentive for us uncoordinated goofballs - you can try to spin one of Haley's own Hula Hoops around your waists. Harry was very concerned that the parade would disrupt our party plans so that's why it's a relief to him that we won't require that they be there all day.
That is SO cool!! I'm glad Harry enjoyed the posts! I wonder if he will show them to Haley? Cool, cool, cool.

Ahhh she will be so happy to see you there - we all do something embarrassing or stupid all the time - the best memories are the one's that put a big old smile on your face

Wait until you meet them, they are so nice and appreciative of all that everyone does. Great family, plus they are so fun and down to earth!

Maybe -- perhaps, MNB has some Greek god/goddess affliction going on! Who knows!
Oh, and "wing it"? Groan. (Yes, I know you're the punster of the group.)
And, finally, in some comment you made (perhaps in the other thread), you mentioned that you've got Mrs. Himm on board for the festivities that weekend. I presume that means she's had a great recovery from her most recent surgery (July?), and, if true, that is great news!
