Hi, everyone!! We had an amazing day today. We started off a little bit on the wrong foot by having the alarm set for PDT and we are in MDT but the day did get better real fast. We went to Best Friends Animal Sanctuary for a free tour of their facilities. The tour is two hours long and it is very informative. We got to meet one of the dogs there and we got to spend some time in with a bunch of cats. The people there are really great people and they do allow volunteering. You can even choose where you want to volunteer, meaning you can choose what type of animal you want to help out with. In short, Best Friends is a great organization and their tour was very nice.
After that, we drove back up to Duck Creek Village and rented a UTV. That was so awesome!! We had a six-seater so that the three of us could all sit in the front and that really does make a difference. We drove on a bunch of ATV/UTV trails and we saw some amazing scenery. We even had the chance, and we took it, to have lunch up on the mountain, in the forest with an amazing view. Lunch was actually so cool that Rebecka said that it was the best picnic ever. Way cool. We were also lucky enough to get to see a buck and some doe, some wild turkeys, a badger and a few hawks. What a day!! I did find out that my right foot (gas pedal) has a habit of reacting to Rebecka’s laugh. Who knew? Her laughing and having such a great time riding in the UTV with us was just amazing for me. I could tell the spots that she really liked and I was able to make them just a little bit more fun for her. I love it when I can do that.
Alright, that’s it for today. Tomorrow we are going to go back to Best Friends and watch them train some of the horses there and then we are going to the Coral Pink Sand Dunes National Park. Rebecka really wants to see pink sand. We’ll see how it goes.
Lol! Love how your right foot is linked with Becka’s laughter. I could almost hear it myself. I’m loving “watching” your progress thru the US.
