Canon City Colorado is well known for it's Music and Blossom Festival every year. Bands come from all over the country to march in the parade. Last year bands came from as far as California and Oklahoma. The parade also hosts floats, clowns and cheerleaders. This parade attacks thousands of visitors.

The city also has an abundance of flowering trees. The trees benefit from the rich soil and the water from the Arkansas river. During World War II apple tree farms lined the river. With a careful eye you can still see very old and very large trees. I took these pictures today April 6th, 2007 just before an ice storm.

Canon City sits in the upper Arkansas River Valley. Those of us that are residents love the climate, atmosphere and have made many life long friends. I'm proud to call Fremont County home.

Dena just seeing the flowering trees is enough to brighten my day.  It is going to be rather cold here this weekend.
