... then you'll be happy to know that the Parade of Horses will be coming back to Charles Town for Xmas '12.
Not sure why they weren't there this past Xmas -- I think they for some reason did it in summer instead -- but anyway, I'm glad to hear they're moving back to December.
Beautiful horses, beautiful colors / decorations, happy kids, general merriment, freezing gonads... how you gonna beat all that?!?
