Emmaus Patch readers may upload photos and video to this gallery at any time.
A big shout out to Christopher Elston Photography for posting a video of this weekend’s Wheels of Time parade to the Emmaus Patch “Pics & Clips” gallery. The video was taken as the cars made their way down Harrison Street in Emmaus on Friday evening. If you missed the parade and are a fan of classic cars, watching this video is the next-best-thing to being there. Keep in mind that you, as an Emmaus Patch reader, are invited to upload any photo or video to this gallery at any time. Been snapping photos of the kiddos as they are getting on and off the school bus? Share them here. Got some nice photos of the first soccer games of the season?

Cars of every style, color and design demand attention as they cruise from Macungie to Emmaus.
The night couldn't have been more perfect as the fiery ball of sun set over Macungie and Emmaus. Restored cars, trucks and even a moped cruised the main streets as crowds anxiously awaited along the sidewalks, some an hour or two prior to the event. Tires could occasionally be heard as they "burned rubber" in a show of hot rod masculinity. Fortunately, no car fires erupted this year.

What does Pompeii, Lawrence Summers and House Splendid have in common? They're all in today's Five Things to Know.
1. It's hopeful that the Emmaus Community Pool will reopen in time for the Labor Day Weekend.

Quote of the Day: "In the history of the world, no one has ever washed a rented car." -- Lawrence Summers 4. If you see hot rods rolling through town today, you know they're on their way to the Wheels of Time Street Rod Association Jamboree in Macungie this weekend. Here's the schedule. 5.
