Gallery: Red, White and Blue Fills Kirkland During Fourth of July Parades

Hundreds lined Central Way under perfect blue skies for the city's annual Independence Day parade.

 

The weather could not have been better as hundreds of people filled the sidewalks of Central Way downtown during Kirkland's annual Kids' Parade and old-fashioned Fourth of July Parade Wednesday.

A clown walked the crowds, candy was thrown from colorful floats, pictures were snapped and candidates for national and state offices waved and walked.

Patch was there to take in the parades -- check out our photo gallery!

I was very sad to have to miss the parade yesterday, but seeing these photos helped. There's just something about a hometown parade - even just seeing the pictures chokes me up.

The Kirkland Parade was, I thought, the best it has been in years!

It was a phenomenal parade, perfect weather, I could have posted 100 pics. It really showed the spirit of this fine city -- the only thing missing was you Karen!
