Many Happy returns to our great nation, a beacon of freedom and hope for 237 years.
With thanksgiving for all those who have sacrificed so much through the years for those who come after them.
Here follows a snapshot of the annual Fourth of July Parade in Ouray, Colorado.
Our son brought the drag racer up from Phoenix to drive in the parade.
He wanted to honor the 19 hero Firemen, the Granite Mountain Team whose lives were lost last week in the Yarnell fire in Arizona. We send love and prayers to all those who knew them.
The entries in the parade were many and varied from dogs.......
To drummers......
and fire trucks, old........
and new.
EMT's....
always Mr. Potter's tractor...........
and many patriotic vehicles honoring our nation's birthday.
Awesome parade...love that the Granite Mountain Guys are being honored in Colorado!
