Over the weekend, I got to take some buckles to the Mojave River Trail Days. And since it was on the way to grandma's house, it wasn't way out of the way for our day either. After dropping off the buckles, we walked around the booths. Rionn got a much needed new cowboy hat. We watched a blacksmith making horse shoes.
We also got to pan for gold.
We got only fool's gold. But that's better than nothing, right?
He also got to ride a pony. The lady gave him a choice of riding a pony named Barbie, or one named Harry Potter. He, of course, chose Harry Potter.
And watched all kinds of steam engines doing what they do.
I also let him take an old fashioned picture. I was a little worried about spending so much on one 8X10 photo. But it came out great. He first wanted to be a train robber, then decided he was going to be the sheriff.
Over all, we had a great time. We even watched the mounted shooting while waiting for the photo. And while it was more than hot and slightly humid, we made it till lunch.
