Cold Can't Chill Santa Parade

Category: News || By

John Barna photo

Neither snow, nor wind nor gloomy skies on Saturday afternoon could keep visitors and participants away from the annual "Salute to Santa" parade, held on Fifth Avenue, Downtown.

Roving photographer John Barna caught the spirit (and possibly a cold) and captured as many sights as he could, like this picture of the clowns, including "Dr. Cuddles."

John wants to know if he can trust a doctor named "Cuddles."

Hey, in this economy, Dr. Cuddles is probably the only professional my health insurance will pay for.

You can see all of the photos in Tube City Online's special gallery.
