We made it through our third trek!!

The trek was great, the kids were great, the weather held out for us. It was cold at night and we saw too many rattle snakes. Look closely in the bushes and you will see. They were all over this time and we really had to be careful where we walked. The one in the picture was just off the path. The river crossing was awesome...because of the rains they have been having the river was two to three feet higher than normal. We had to forge holding a rope. The water came up to above my waist and the current was swift. It gave the youth a better feel of what the pioneers had to face. I will get more pictures. All in all it was a great time and we survived the bug bites, the ticks and the snakes....but good food and a warm bed at night.
