I spent a week in Colorado doing some riding and hiking. On the 4th I rode down from Estes Park to Boulder to meet up with the over 6'2" ride. We rode up Left Hand Canyon to the little town of Ward.
Once in Ward we got to see the Annual Ward 4th Parade! The photos do not do this thing justice!

Is that Nelson Vales?

Very Creative!

Who says POT has side affects!



Ummmmmm Drugs are bad......

At one point Ward had the most PHDs per cap. I am guessing their kids didn't not follow in the same foot steps.
Link to WARDOh yeah the locals were shooting fireworks out of the fire truck during the parade. It was very surreal as bottle rocks would fly into the crowd and explode. Fucking nuts.....and the fire danger was listed as "High".
