Indian attack on Eldorado?

These approaching Indians have been in Eldorado all summer, right at the edge of the La Tienda shopping center.

I have no idea why they are there, or what they are used for.

But they were interesting as a photo op.

Our goats in Eldorado

This summer and fall we have a goat herd residing in Eldorado. They were brought to Eldorado from a ranch south of here, to given the goats a place to graze, and to help Eldorado out with reducing the level of weeds and vegetation.

The goats are contained in a small area on one of the main roads in the subdivision, and are taken out to various sites in Eldorado every day to graze in open areas and also on private property.

It is just the funniest thing to watch them as they are being taken to a place to graze. There are two cowboys on horseback and two herding dogs, all trying to get a bunch of over 100 goats to head in the determined direction. Herding goats proves to be no easy task!

Looking west towards the Jemez Mountains in the distance.

I love this view.

Eldorado's First Annual Car Show

On July 4th, at La Tienda parking lot in Eldorado, a bunch of classic and vintage car enthusiasts held the First Annual Eldorado car show, which they hope will grow into a yearly event.

Lots of cool cars there:












These last two cars were seen in the Fourth of July parade:

Celebrating the Fourth in Eldorado

Eldorado was a fun and colorful place to be on Independence Day.

Pancake breakfast, parade, party at the community center, concert at La Tienda, kids, dogs, fire trucks, decorations, lots of red white and blue. It was a perfect day.

Here are some of John's pictures:
