I love a parade! Especially when it's in the middle of a sunny, mild day, five minutes from home and involves cattle and sheep running through the downtown streets. We got just such a parade Tuesday as part of the events surrounding the 100th National Western Stock Show, which is a huge deal in Denver.
The parade highlights were the longhorn and the sheep-herding border collies. Oh, and the rodeo queens and princesses, who wear getups to die for. There was also a tiny covered wagon pulled by two shetland sheepdogs. Talk about cute overload!

Sunny and mild?! You must be thrilled you're not in Oregon. We have had something like twice as much rain as a normal January. And we are not even halfway through the month!!
Well, apparently it's a milder-than-normal winter here, so I reckon next year it will be much colder. I am rarely ever thrilled to not be in Oregon. : ) I love Denver, but it would take a lot to replace Portland as my all-time favorite city.
Wait till you come to San Fran. It might be your new fave. So when are you coming for a visit???? :)
I'm sure SF would rank up there. It's a place I used to want to live (even though I'd never been there), but I knew I could never afford it. It's one of Michael's favorites. We really hope to get there this year; I know he's itching to visit his crew there.
