It´s that wondeful day of the year when Americans celebrate Independence Day - the Fourth of July. Twelve miles up the valley from La Veta in the village of Cuchara, the festivities were in full swing for the 41st Annual Curchara Fourth of July Parade. Cuchara has about 75 year round residents but summer homes in the mountain valley drive up the population considerably - like to about 350. However, for their parade, 3000 people show up and the village is swarming with visitors.

I hope you enjoy the photos. The children are precious! ... and the dogs? - we´ll... the picture of the dogs is worth a thousand words. I am excited to have my best friend from high school and his family here to celebrate for a few days. if you celebrate the 4th of July, what did you do to celebrate today?
