This afternoon's experience

After lunch at the trailer we drove back into the park to the Peaceful Valley Ranch and took a 1-1/2 hour trail ride.  We were part of a group of 12 plus two wranglers and the trail took us up into the depths of the park and back out.  Jo's horse was "little Joe" and mine was "dude."  Jo was first behind the lead wrangler and I was next.  Other than getting on and off I think Jo had an easier time than I did.  My legs/hips complained all the way about spreading around that saddle.  We're just not as limber as we used to be.  They didn't allow cameras, purses, or cell phones so we just enjoyed our ride through the sage brush and prairie dog towns.  We did see a small herd of wild horses along the way but no bison.
