More horses and some goodbyes

We heard about a local event, Pawnee Bill's Wild West Show, and despite the heat, we took Andrew out to see some historic re-enactments. He wasn't as appreciative of the Mansion tour, but did enjoy the AC! It took a fair amount of discussion, but we did finally get him on a horse-you can see how hot it was w/his blazing red face! We didn't stay for the rodeo, but I think we'll try next year. We also had to say goodbye to our good friend, Luke. Alas, he was finally able to move back with his wife (working out-of-state) after selling their house here in Stillwater. Now the Rogers are finally back together & we miss them both!

Family Vacation & Horse Rides

We went to Eureka Springs for a short vacation, but this was the first time to take Andrew. All of those parents of toddlers know what happened...no leisurely strolls along historic boulevards....gazing at unique art shops, staying in 200 year old hotels....instead, we went SWIMMING!! While it was a definite departure, we all had a blast! Danny & I learned our equilibrium didn't follow us into adulthood after we both were just dizzy after pushing Andrew on the merry-go-round. We took Andrew on his first carraige ride through downtown. He also got to see the classic cars-a yearly event where all the cars travel through town after the show...this car was staying at our hotel & he just had to get his picture taken!
