To answer everyone’s question — NO it is not green. 

The last Saturday in September is Swiss Days. The people who settled Santa Clara were Swiss, so they have this celebration every year. Paul, Elizabeth & I made it to the parade and walked around the booths and had lunch. Pictures are on Paul’s computer and he will add those:
Paul Here- I haven’t edited the pics, I have just uploaded them all as a gallery item right now, so you can see them all, including Darth Vader (who wasn’t very tall, we did wonder if he needed some platform shoes). I will see if I can edit them and make them a bit clearer when i get 2 minutes spare.
