We got to the mountains and the camp site Sunday night. Others rolled in through Monday with a total of 11 wagons/teams and over 100 outriders. We rode 4 days, the shortest being 12 miles, through some beautiful country. Wide open, rolling hills with huge ponderosa pine, elk, and surpisingly quite a few watering holes and creeks. Cassidy rode on the wagon with Mom and Dad while Tucker got used to all the noise and commotion. It took him a day and a half but then he was able to settle down and we were actually able to be Dad's outrider/helper. Cassidy couldn't have done better...she loved the bouncing, the rougher the road the better. She was even able to take her afternoon nap on the wagon.

Wagons Ho!
Last week Cassidy and I had an amazing adventure. We left Saturday night to join Mom and Dad SE of Pendleton in Blue Mountains for the 28th annual Wagon Train Ride with the Pendleton Roundup. We were able to spend one night with my wonderful friend Lindsey and her family in Hepner before heading into the mountains...
