the Wyoming High Country Mountain & Western Adventures...
We stumbled onto this place, (I had seen it online but thought it's probably too exensive) after a long day on back roads out in the Bighorn Mts. , their sign said Gas..Loidging ...Food... just the right timing for Johnnie, he pulled in & we met our great hosts, Susan and Mark, (Mark was our Chef...YUMMY!) I unfortunately had to go right to bed when we arrived they woke me for dinner, baby back ribs, corn on the cob, coleslaw( the best I ever had) and baked beans.(EWWW, I still don't like beans!) all else was delicious, delicious, delicious !
we went for a walk then back to the lodge and a hot bath then into bed at 7:30 !!
but what a wonderful nights sleep !!
and then a breakfast that would have fed a village on just my plate !! whew!!
then to horse back riding with our own guide, Jeff. he gave us the full tour and my what fun we had and thank God no Pain afterwards, I can still ride horses !!







moose #2



Medicine Wheel.. what a spiritual place....hot ...take your sun screen... soak it up vibes kind of place.....click on pictures for more detail...

ROCKS oh my what a wonderous discovery !! private land holders in Wyoming and Montana let you have some of their rocks.....but national parks and lands protected I could only take pictures.....

Angels Abound !!!

My Mom came home from Whatcom County and met a new friend on the ferry. She brought her home,(as we are quite fond of doing) and she is a fabulous new friend. what a jolt of Joy she brought to our home. Annette is an International House / Pet Sitter.
what a hoot !! we had so much fun and only left the house once ! when she left this morning I had to route her down around the park so she could see the mountians !! Very unlike us. but we had girly fun doing nails baking visiting...just fun. and we ate well too. :) Safe travels Anette, Hug a redwood or two for me !
