Mountain Man Rondezous

Today we went to visit Susan and Warren at the Mountain Man Rondezous outside of Ogden, UT. It was something I had never experienced before but it was a lot of fun and it was fun to see how things were done several years ago. It made me very thankful that I am alive now instead of then. Adam thought I would be weirded out by all the costumes and characters there, and though I admit seeing men in just loin clothes was interesting, the weirdest part for me was seeing people carrying around guns and knives. The people dressed up like Indians were probably the most interesting crowd to watch; they were pretty scantily clad and were drinking a lot. There were two types of people there: those who were intrigued by the history of it and enjoy getting away from all the hussle and bussle of everyday life and then those who just wanted an excuse to get drunk. As a spectator it was just fun to watch it all. Image Elaina playing in the dirt.

Adam and his brothers love the game Madden 94. It's way old school and really boring, but whatever. Tyler came over the other night to play. Elaina wanted to join in on the fun. She got the hang of holding the controls really fast. I had to take a picture because this will be the first and last time she ever plays games like this. I know, mean mom.
