Day 124: Rodeos and roller skating

This morning, Grandma DiAnn and Barry took us to a neighborhood riding school and stables.  There were some guys practicing calf roping, and one of them asked if the kids would like to sit on a horse:

We watched them run trough their calf roping practice.  The two cowboys ride out of chutes on either side of the calf, which comes running out of a gated contraption controlled by the fellow standing on the ground:

And they’re off!

On the way home, Barry showed us a local wetland with paved trails.  In the afternoon, the kids rode their scooters while Trish and I skated from the RV to the wetland.  We skated/scootered all the paved trails and then skated back to the RV.

 

Grandma DiAnn and Barry took us and my parents out to dinner.  Everyone had a great time!

Tomorrow we will leave Las Vegas after being here for two weeks and change.  We will be trading extension cords and WiFi for wide open spaces.  It’s hard to say goodbye, but there’s so much more to see!
