Pasadena Rose Parade Prep Pictures

The festivities were in full swing as people officially and legally began their squatting in order to have a great view of the parade.  It almost made me wonder if there was such a thing as a professional street squatter, because some of these people are much too organized.

For example, at first I only saw portable chairs lining the streets, but soon there were sleeping bags, then air mattresses, and finally full fledged cots.  These people are ready to sleep in style!  If it got cold I saw at least half a dozen people with the portable heaters that restaurants use, propane, the height of a lamp post, like I said, professional.  There were extra propane tanks, logs for burning, coolers for food, tables, the whole nine yards.  I can't believe that these people still have 20 more hours to go.  And what could express the scenario better than pictures snapped with my Storm (pardon the low quality).
