Fly In at Big Piney Airport....baby antelope...drive up Gyp Creek down Moose Creek to Green River Lakes


Dick Klaber was the "line boy" when we flew in.

Locals brought their old and restored cars..it was fun.

This doesn't really show how many people were there.  A lot of the bridge club and "substitutes" were there.

These baby antelope are right across from Kathy Kerback's house.

The title doesn't mention we also went to The Place for their free hamburgers.  They were cooked outside, and great.  We don't know how their auction went.

Halfway down Moose Creek we counted over a hundred head of elk...stringing across to get a drink.  We watched them for fifteen minutes.

This little water fall and flowers were so beautiful.

A Photo from Yesterday...


A shot of White Rock aka Cat Ears and a little bit of Square Top from Mud Lake while we were holding cows to mother up!
Today I didn't get much done...a lot of washing...the house is still a disaster.  We went to Rendezvous Pointe...wormed horses...and hualed 3 down to Jerry's.  Bob has plans to work with the geldings...hope it happens. 
Went to the lake while checking water.  It's still going over the overflow.  Stopped at Hagenstein's to return their chain saw.  Bob used it while ours was broken down.

Drive into Mud Lake Day 12


The gather heading for the red gate. Twenty one degrees up there this morning.  Ahh, but lunch at The Place.

We saw eighteen head of cow elk..we think all with calves heading over the ridge just behind our drive in the Mud Lake pasture.  Jill and Gary..eat your hearts out!

Mothering up at Mud Lake.  We'll be headed there tomorrow too.  I had actually planned for yesterday to be my last day..but I am pretty sure tomorrow will be.  Decided Day 13 had an omnious sound....but will do it.  My mares are worn out. Bob's Chaco horse threw a front shoe today, so he'll be doing some horse shoeing if he rides the next day to push Albert's bunch clear into the lake.  At this point he plans to do it.
