A Little Trip - Actually I just want to show you photos

We took a little trip to my in-laws place. We had a funeral to go to, and then to catch up with some of K's ( and now mine) Friends.

I love Wide Open Spaces... and we got to see a lot.


a Train - but to be specific - a Train of Engines. I haven't seen that ( that I can remember) for a while. At least not more that two engines... So I thought it was cool.

and Goats - Goats playing King of the Hill....



One of the Ranches we drive through has a HUGE String of Bucking horses. These horses are used in the Rodeos - but to see them on the range... you would have no idea they like to buck off their riders ;-) 




And a Deer!

i think we shocked him - he was so close!!


I also got to meet Dolly and Gene Roy. You can't tell from the angle of the photo - but Gene Roy ( on the right) is taller than Me.,.... I am 5'10"  - that is one Big pet!!

Beautiful scenes. Is it in CO? I've never heard of horses that are actually classified as "bucking" - lol! I've been following a train on Facebook - the Union Pacific Big Boy No. 4014 - so I'm always up for a photo of a train - love them!

What awesome sights. . A train of engines! Gene Roy is a huge pet! Thanks for sharing your visit with us.

That looks a lot like western South Dakota, but could be anywhere in the northern Plains I guess. The string of rodeo horses definitely made me think Sutton Ranch in SD. LOL

I love to see the animals roaming free in paddocks, I've always been a horse fan from way back when the local farmer (in the UK) way back early 1950's delivered milk to households by horse and cart and I was lucky enough to be allowed to go along with him! I would be in charge of the reins and keeping the horse steady while he ladled fresh milk from the churn into the jug left on the home doorstep!
