Arroyo Seco 4th
Arroyo Seco July 4th
The population of Arroyo Seco (1,149 in the 2000 census) doubles and returns to normal over a period of four hours around the town’s July 4th parade. Most of the locals and all of the vistors cram into the three block long main street. 2,000 people, children, costumes, dogs, stilts, bunting and flags, lots of flags. This photograph was made nearly two hours after the crush; this prime real estate was three deep when the first fire truck went past.
