Brayden, Riley and Zackary: three peas in a pod!

June 25 & 26

The population of Freedom, WY jumped over the past two days from 100 to 105 due in part to our arrival. Two words to describe it: beautiful and cool.

Aunt Kdee bought some water balloons and the kids, Aric included, spent most of the afternoon drenching themselves.

 

 

Once all the balloons were gone, we visited with the horses,

  played some ball…

and rode in the back of the truck.

  What more could a little boy ask for?

Saturday morning Aunt Kdee took us to an elk farm,

where the boys climbed the hay

  and fed the elk some grass (I hope that was legal).

  

Then it was off to the park to get in some swing time,

and to bury ourselves in the rocks.

Next, we got to see some baby cows.

    And, to end our day off with a true Wyoming bang, Keith and Kdee took us to Bar J’s Chuckwagon, in Jackson,

where we took a wagon ride and

enjoyed a nice swing in the evening sun.

Three peas in a pod!  

The dinner and show were fabulous: true cowboy grub served up true cowboy style on a tin plate and true cowboy music complete with a with fiddler, steel guitar, yodeling and and a rendition of Old Man River that literally shook the floor. Keith, Kdee and Zackary – you rock!

Now it’s onto Salt Lake City, UT for a little R&R.
