The weather may not have been reminiscent of Christmas past, but it was perfect for the annual Madison day-after-Thanksgiving Christmas parade. Thousands of people packed downtown on Friday night. Check out our gallery, and see who we found enjoying the festivities.

Thanks for your great coverage of the parade! I couldn't be there in person, but after seeing all of your great pictures, I almost feel like I was!
