Yes its over, and how sad is that! I loved it! It was a lifetime experience I shall never forget. I shall not bore you all with the holiday at once, no I shall bore you all for months!!!! Lol!
After a long three flights we had arrived! Now dont get me wrong, I have been to America before, and always enjoyed the trip. But this one was exceptional! The welcome was warm and friendly, the food was plentiful and good, the riding? Well what can I say? Brilliant!
I have pictures like forever! Hundreds of them, trouble is, I need to sort them out! But thought I`d make a start here. I have posted on Instagram, while I was there. Lets get the problems out of the way right now. Day before I left, the glass on my HTC1x broke! Then during the first week, my other main camera broke too! So Sheena and I ended up using her little Lumix 10!
This was the view from the Ranch, right across from my Cabin. The Beartooth Mountains, Impressive.
This old barn, beautiful and a living history piece. Still used, as the tack barn.
Inside the tack barn, and to the back, the corrals. Each day, the horses were brought in from the pasture, ready for saddling up.
Horses and more horses!
I`d better let you see my Cabin, all the usual refinements, the bed was comfy, especially after a some painkillers!

More to come, a slow drip feeding!………..
So envious. I've only been to Montana once and never on the back of a horse. Can't wait for more pix.

ReplyDeleteI'd love to know where you went if it's open to the public. Thanks
Hi, this Ranch is called, The Lonesome Spur Ranch. If you google that, you`ll find it. It is open to the public, and is one of the few working ranches left that the public can enjoy. The Ranch is about 10 miles outside Ft Bridger, MT
