Colorado Daze

August 1st is "Colorado Day"

It's a day to go out and see Splash Dogs

...and tractors.

lots of tractors!

Here's Duncan resting under one now!

Why is it Colorado Day? Well, apparently on August 1, 1876, President Grant signed a proclamation creating Colorado as the 38th state of the Union. It's a day we Coloradoans use to raise awareness of the state's historically significant locations! If you have a favorite Colorado historical site, you can tell Governor Bill Ritter (he's making a list) by going here.
