Wrong way to Colorama

A Grand Coulee ambulance heads the wrong way down Midway Avenue during Saturday's parade to take care of a man in distress at the Pacific Pride station. It was a heat-related issue. EMT Ben Alling, a veteran in the parade on the American Legion float, jumped off the float to help when his radio went off. When temperatures change quickly, as they did last week, suddenly exceeding 80, people have trouble adjusting. Just ask Star writer Roger Lucas. Or actually, on the opinion page, you can read his first-hand account of being that person who needed the help. - Scott Hunter photo
