Of course a week at the Rockin' R Ranch involved cowboy boots and horseback riding! I loved the trail rides, but trying to get the horses to GO in the arena was problematic. I kept thinking of Grandma Maughan who was such a horsewoman and did not take kindly to the suggestion that she ride a gentle horse. She wanted one that had some spirit! We, too, groaned when we were given certain lazy horses who took advantage of our inexperience.
Hay ride through the Antimony countryside
Harmony loved the pond, the dog that swam with her chasing ducks, and the rope swing.
Can you believe the cowboy rock formation behind the cowgirls?
Claire was really good at archery!
Play hard all day, line dance, pet animals, learn some new skills,
eat well, make new friends, ride a tube down a river, explore,
read a good book together, go to bed tired;
do it again the next day,
bond forever with precious grandgirls.
