A sunny evening greets Castle Rock fair-goers

Girl Scouts from Troop 44208 march in one of the more colorful floats found during the 2013 Castle Rock Fair parade Thursday. This had been the 55th-annual fair and the theme was "Tradition Lives on at the Rock."

A classic fire engine from Castle Rock’s Cowlitz County Fire District 6 leads a column of emergency vehicles—a staple of the small-town parade.
