PORTLAND, Ore — The biggest of the Rose Festival Parades brings thousands to the streets to see the floats, vintage cars, and of course flowers.
This year got off to a cloudy start but that did not keep the marching bands from marching or the floats from driving by, waving at kids and adults alike.
