Uncle Ed Retires!!!! Salida’s best loved clown

You guys know Uncle Ed, right? He’s the one who’s been making balloon art for years at all the Salida town festivals, farmers markets, circus performances and what-have-ye. Did you know he’s also been a professional rodeo clown and bull rider for most of his life? Last weekend at the Chaffee County Fair, he had his last ride and is set to retire. Read all about it in this coming week’s Mountain Mail, “Salida Natives” column.
