WALSENBURG- A crisp Autumnal evening provided a wonderful setting for this year′s parade. A blizzard of lights from the fire department started off the evening. While not a long parade, there were a variety of entries bringing oohs and ahhs from the crowd. The children around the Depot were torn between looking at the lights and scrambling for the candy. Journey Home had electric cowboys while Edla′s Yarns grandsons drummed the night away. The Grinch rode a Harley and the snow waited until everyone had gone home.
