Photo Op: The Cow Parade In Denver
The Cow Parade was in Denver the very first time I visited this awesome city. This particular cow was shot by Flickr user GISuser.
I saw a cow painted in Broncos colors, and another one in the park! After the cows were “rounded up”, they were all auctioned off for charity. I’m pretty lucky, because I also saw the Cow Parade when it came through Las Vegas, where I’m from.
