Hardware Ranch

Yesterday, Manda's family, Mom and Papa, PG and I drove up to Logan where we met with Joy's family and went to Hardware Ranch. Hardware Ranch is an Elk reserve. They give "sleigh rides" out around the field where hundreds of Elk are just standing there feeding and fighting. It was really cool to be like 10-20 feet away from hundreds of wild animals. The major downfall to yesterday was the outside temperature. We stood in line for the sleigh ride for probably an 1 1/2 hours...and it was about 6 degrees. The little kids were really cold! Poor was sooo cold when we finally got back to the car and he started to warm he just cried and cried! Fortunately he was able to calm after a little while and just go to sleep.

This is us on the "sleigh ride" - I put that in quotes because it wasn't really a sleigh. It was a big trailer on wheels pulled by 2 Clydesdale horses. It was fun, but by this point PG had had enough...he was COLD and TIRED! I am not sure which one he was more of! :o)
Here are a few pics of the Elk...what would an entry about an Elk reserve be without pictures of them? I just don't know! :o)


Enjoy...until next time!
