Frontier Fun



Our grand daughter and her parents came to visit recently and we all got to spend one evening up at the Park walking through Wild Horse Gulch and riding rides at the carnival. We saw chuck wagon cooking over open fires and various shopkeepers and characters at the Gulch and lots of blinking lights and noises at the carnival with the concert going on in the stadium.




Miss Callie and her Mom wore their boots, the perfect footwear for avoiding the horse sh-t that one finds in the parking lots. Dad “won” Callie a big ball that she carried around. We all rode the big Ferris wheel and Callie keep a death grip around Daddy’s neck up at the top when we were stopped to load additional riders down below, but she never cried. She loved the cotton candy Mommy bought her. Maybe next year we can get to a parade or something.

  1. There are STILL rides I will never attempt. Nonetheless, it's been a great summer.

  2. Sooo fun!!! Next year maybe we can join you all, as we won't have such a big bash for year 2. :)

  3. I don't know what you are talking about, Dad. I would ride ALL the rides... especially the Ferris Wheel... while swinging back and forth. Heights are what I call "fun".
