Home, home on the range......

at the Flying W Ranch. We just got back....we are full, and it was good. We sat with 3 Mennonite kids who were in Colorado on a mission trip from Lancaster, Pennsylvania. It was pretty cool, because they were not from a rigorous branch of Mennonitism. Two boys, both 18, and one girl, 18. They were helping care for babies of mothers who are in prison. Although she had on the head covering, and the dress that Mennonites wear, they also had their digital cameras, and were even text messaging on their cell phones. Hannah, Marissa and Ansley had a good time talking to them. The kids really enjoyed the "cowboy music" after dinner....(right!) However, after we left, we found a Starbucks, so all was well with the girls. We have 10:30 a.m. reservations on the Cog Railway to the top of Pikes Peak in the morning. Tonight should be interesting, because like all good chuck-wagon meals.....everyone filled up on B-B-Q beans. Nothing like going back to small hotel rooms after that!
Well....good night all.
