We decided to show off the District Hovercraft, which is used for Bay access to marshlands.
   

Supervisor James Counts piloted the 1947 Dodge Powerwagon during the parade.

Mosquitoes can be transported into our County in many ways....even in the backs of Mosquito Abatement trucks.
   
That pesky female mosquito is always seeking out its next meal......Got Blood? You can tell it is a female by the tiara she is wearing on her head.
   
As the Doctor sneaks up on that pesky mosquito, its looks like it is unaware that it is about to be captured...
   

Looks like the Doc let another one get away. Darn Pesky Mosquito!!!
   
Here is that pesky mosquito going after one of the District's Trustees.

Mosquito bites can cause serious problems for people who are elderly or have compromised immune systems. So, please remove all standing water from your property.
   
A few fancy ladies hitched a ride and enjoyed the parade along with the hundreds of Burlingame residents.

A good time was had by all!
