Went for Wagon Ride

Couple weeks ago, Mountain Man and I were asked to be at this event to offer his Farrier services. My first wagon trail ride! It was a blast!!
18 miles when the day was finished! We rode some, took a potty break, then it rained and rained. We went ahead anyhow and rode some more then stopped for lunch. By this time, the mules and horses needed a break too.
Towards the last few miles we, Mtn Man and I, changed wagons as the mules were wearing out! In the new ride, I got to bring us home the last eighth mile! Powerful animals pulling a wagon with three adults in it! Thinking we need to get ourselves set up..... ha ha
Enjoy the photos...

 This is the original wagon we rode in that day. This day of pics they had traded out a mule because the other was all done. Randy the mule was a great mule who earned his spot to pull another day! He loves pulling!!

 The green wagon above has been driven many, many miles. The were hour and half from home on this ride. But it would take them three days to get home with this ride. We pray they made it home safely!

 This is the pair I drove...Sassy and Sally are a great pair! They love pulling!!

 The gal on the horse brings up the rear just in case of trouble. They are called the road riders! A whole group of "outriders" were in and out of the wagon ride.

 This unique wagon could seat 8+ and had a bath room and bbq!

19 wagons and 10+ outriders.
This ride was a fundraiser for the special olympics. Great ride for a great cause!!
