Rodeo Days

I heard there were a lot of cowboys in town for Rodeo Days.  We did not partake in the festivities.  However, we did take advantage of our days off of school.  Yes, we get 2 days off for Rodeo Days each year.  Maybe next year we'll go to the parade or a rodeo, this year, we went hiking!

Did that surprise you?

Well we did.

And we took friends who had not been hiking locally yet.

Sharp looking group of kids there.

 Often any hand will do, but if it can be of someone special, the more readily it is taken

 Where are you going girls?

Easy does it.

Glad you made it back ladies.

It was again a successful hike and all had fun.  Remember to stop for snacks, water, and check out all that surrounds you.  We found various animal tracks and scat, interesting sticks and rocks, and all of us got too close to a cactus at some point.

We had a full load, even if one turned his head as I snapped the picture.  Our friends fell asleep on the way home, always a welcomed signed from mommas!
