Happy 24th of July/Pioneer Day - Utah!

I enjoy these types of events celebrating local history. Happy Pioneer Day!

We have Territory Days here in Colorado Springs each May. On August 1, we celebrate Colorado Day, commemorating August 1, 1876, when Colorado became a state under President Ulysses S. Grant.

Interesting. I never knew that Utah had a Pioneer Day. That's definitely a state that's proud of its heritage.

I went to college in Utah so I was aware of Pioneer Day. I think though that I was so into the studies that I never really realized how big a deal it was. Not that I've officially celebrated Pioneer Day as a new resident I now know that it's a super big deal that Utah take sseriously. It's such a blast.
