Surprises for my mother-in-law!!!

We headed south this morning with the team Mike & Arvid to surprise my mother-in-law for her 65th birthday. She had no idea we were on our way and we woke up early as we couldn't wait to see her re-action! With our lifestyle our family and friends don't see us in the summer unless they come west but with a 65th we had to do something BIG for Donna!






The family all geared up for a trip around town.






We pulled into the gas station and the women came out with a big smile and explaining their was no horse fuel there....

We stopped for a cold beer at the old Hotel and met some locals who could tell we were not from this town...smile.

Grant (my brother-in-law) with the team up. The train went by and the team didn't even look up from eating...its neat to see the bush horses in town and not care.

Keeping it green...even when watering horses in town!

It was a fun day in the sun with family and so has the last few trips we have had out at camp. I wished I had brought the pics to update....it is on my to do list next time to town. We head up river next week to set up Lone Horse and let the August season begin!

Remember to book some time off work for our Working Mountain Horse Challenge at the end of September...going to be another fun time!
