Dad and I proclaimed dates composed of the same digit to be fun. We first celebrated 7-7-77, 8-8-88, and 9-9-99 in eleven year intervals. Then the two of us enjoyed the days 1-1-1, 2-2-2, 3-3-3, 4-4-4, 5-5-5, 6-6-6, 7-7-7 together annually. Beginning with 8-8-8 and then again on 9-9-9 the twins joined our party. Today is a little different because it is a repeating number, not a repeating digit, but we made up the holiday so we can make up the rules. We tried to give the day a parade, but the best we could do was a parked fire truck.
