Wagons Ho!


Here we are on the hot and dusty trail! We had a total of 6 covered wagons, counting the chuckwagon that was pulled by four mules, plus several out-riders (those on horseback) and a three smaller carts and carriages. The majority of the ride was on gravel road (as seen here), but other parts were through grassland (rough!) and on sandy minimum maintenance roads. It's hard for the teams to pull the load through sand. I swear I heard Jr. and Laddie swearing! ; )
