Hispanic Heritage Month celebrates all of the influences and
customs that we love and enjoy here in the U.S.A. The Hispanic food, the music,
the art and the language that enriches our daily lives is ever so present in
our small part of the world. Taco Bell, Mighty Taco, avocados, tortillas,
burritos, fajitas, salsa, The Tango, El Merengue, El Paso Doble, Pablo Picasso,
Dali, Frida Kahlo, Antonio Banderas, Pedro Lopez, Sofia Vergara, and supreme court judge Sotomayor
are just a few of the names, sounds, and people that Hispanic month brings to
mind. Hispanic Heritage Month is celebrated between September 15th thru October
15th. Share in the cultural adventure they bring to us.
