We went to the American West Heritage center. The boys got to go inside a huge tee pee and listen to a native American tell stories. There was also a mountain man trapper exhibit. We all got to throw tomahawks at tree stumps. The boys thought this was awesome - I am sure it will be a long time before someone else hands them an ax and tells them to throw it.
They went on a pony ride. Hayden's pony was having sneezing issues, I think it made him a little nervous. I thought it was funny that they had the kids wear helmets on the ponies when just minutes before they were throwing tomahawks.
We panned for gold and actually found some (well, fool's gold).
The mountain man demonstration was interesting. We learned all about beaver felt hats and how to trap them. Ty really liked the big old guns that were taller than him. They were so heavy he could barely lift them.
We took a drive up Logan canyon to check it out. We stopped at natural spring, then headed to one of the damns for a picnic lunch. I really like this picture of Whitney and the boys looking for fish.
