Our nation's independence
was celebrated in fine form last weekend with Durango's
Salute to America, which included an inaugural 4th
of July parade and an awe-inspiring fireworks display.
Locals and visitors alike lined the store fronts along
Main Avenue on Sunday evening as miniature cars and
raft guide crazies made their way through downtown.
After the patriotic festivities of the parade and the
music of Ralph Dinosaur and the Fabulous Volcanoes,
downtown pedestrians staked out their viewing locations
with coolers, portable camp chairs and warm blankets.
Firework aficionados weren't disappointed as they were
treated to a colorful display as the 4th of July drew
to a late night close.
