What a wonderful parade! My first event of the year. It was good to be back in the National Western Stock Show Parade 2013 in downtown Denver. The weather was fine, the crowds were cheering our western heritage! Yes!

Moments before this photo was taken, the nice horsey was nuzzling Meals on Wheels trying to puzzle him out!
Meals on Wheels was a popular attraction. While on parade, he did a fine job dodging road apples and light rail tracks! When the parade paused for traffic, I was able to circle in the street for the many camera phones and photographers. Too much fun!
