WICKENBURG AZ GOLD RUSH DAYS PARADE


This huge parade had over 1100 horses! A wonderful old west theme.




Lots of men were riding the horses...unlike at home. Loved the mountain man theme!



Look Ma no hands, what a nice horse!





Lots of ladies of questionable morality!








Garey Cosentino gets a garter from one of the "ladies."








dirt bike fun






This rock climbing truck has seen some action





LOTS of well behaved horses



Paul got TWO garters from the ladies of the night!




Pretty creative entries. Loved this appy mini horse.



dozens of old and classic cars




helicopter for Paul




Beautiful palomino, my favorite


sign on the side said: don't let your teeth go to pot...an ad for a dentist! lol




how do they get on and off?





a Schweitzer in the sky overhead




This guy accidently dropped the reins and the horses drifted calmly onto the side of the road!




Obviously some natural horsemanship out here, these horses pushed the ball the lenght of the parade!




Sheriff Arpaio in person.



Loved this gorgeous RZR



What a paintjob



Bella enjoyed being with us all day, and even got used to the noise of the parade.
