boy scouts

You are about to see why I didn't blog yesterday.  The good news is, I remembered to take pictures!  

It was an absolutely beautiful sunset.

So the girls decided we should go for a walk to enjoy it.


And of course, we needed some wine for the walk.  

We actually needed 2 bottles to be enough for all of us.

But I thought it might look kind of, um, well, trashy if we showed you our two bottles.

Except Wrangler Sarah didn't think so!


So I gave in.  

And, well, we were going on a walk.  

So, of course, taking along wine glasses would be a bit of a hassle.  

Actually, taking along ANY glasses would be a bit of a hassle.

So we didn't.  

But after a long day of riding, there's nothing like a big, swig of wine.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

As we walked along, we decided to hunt for feral Boy Scouts.

 
While there is a barbed wire fence in between our land and the Boy Scout land,  

there are boulders to help us over.


Except for those who wear leather-soled boots find it a bit...slick.


Roo can't help but laugh as she assists Cookie upright herself.  

Come to think of it, ALL of us were laughing.  Hence the blurry pictures!


Poor Cookie.  She tore her shirt and  her side!

But she's a trooper and kept on trekking.  


We made sure to take time to stop and smell the flowers, too.


We finally made it to the top of some rocks for the rest of the sunset, but still made it safely back before it was completely dark.  

And that's why I didn't blog yesterday.  

So there.

  1. I am so enjoying your adventure and in this one i loved it that you went looking for "feral" boyscouts. That's my LeAndra! Cookie seems to be favoring her left arm in a couple of photographs. Did she hurt her arm on the tumble from the boulder?

  2. I don't think she hurt her arm, but she had a pretty big scrape on her right side from one of the barbs.

    Thanks for reading! :)
