A Pinch of the Wild West

I’m sure you’ll recall the fact that I had one of my best friends coming to visit me here in Idaho last week!  She stayed a full seven days and we had many adventures together.  One day, we left RW at home and while we were out driving up the wee highway that parallels the upper Portneuf River we came across a pair of covered wagons.  I swerved a bit and exclaimed something like, “It’s still the Wild West in Idaho!!!”
I drove on down the highway and then slammed on my brakes and turned the truck around.  I knew that if I didn’t stop to photograph those darn cowboys I would regret it.  So back we went.  I jumped out of my Tacoma with my camera in hand and those cowboys obliged me with a photo shoot on the side road where they were parked.  Sweet fellas.  They said they were just out for a jaunt up and over the mountains.  
They also told me, “We dawnt usualleeee pose for picshuresss but the persons responseeeble for hawlding the camera in’t usually so easy on the eyes...”  
GUFFAW!
Ho hum.
Just another day in Idaho.
Enjoy:
