Trail Ride at the Ranch

Sunday afternoon we headed out to the ranch near Lake MacKenzie for a trail ride with Kerry Don's family. KD comes from a large family, but there were only 21 of us (ha/ha)! 3 of his brothers and their families came Dexter, Delwin, and Joe Wayne plus his parents, Don and Freva. It was a very special day with the Adams' family! We had 7 four wheelers and 2 Razors.

The trail was smooth most of the time, but sometimes it got pretty rough and steep. They bulldozed this trail about a year ago!


When we got down in the bottom of the canyon, it was soo pretty especially with the fall foilage.


All the bigger kids that drove did such a good job! They were very responsible.
Pake road with Ty, Aaron drove Brenden, and Bailey had Drew.


We stopped off at Lake MacKenzie to see if it's gone down... unfortunately it has! No sking or water skis... not that you could this time of year, but we wish the water level would go back up!

Kerry Don and the boys with the beautiful canyon in the background.

We had to hike to some of the scenic outlooks. This one was pretty steep and slick! I told them I wasn't going but they made me! It was worth it though.


Dexter, Don Adams (KD's Dad), Kerry Don and Delwin looking and listening to whatever Dexter is telling them.


What awesome scenery! The picture really doesn't do it justice!


Another scenice overlook where we saw some audad sheep!

L to R: Kristie & Tate on the red 4 wheeler; Julia, Kaitlyn and Joe Wayne on the green Razor; Ty & Pake; Dewlin & Keiser and then Don & Freva on the red Razor!


Ty and Pake.... they had a windshield on their 4 wheeler... no fair!

Pake and Ty looking at the water in the bottom of the Canyon... they make me nervous!


Tate at the windmill... they saw catfish in the tank and drank straight out of the pipe!

Kerry Don and stopped and took a pic.... wish you could see the background better!

We road for about 2 hours and went back to camp and cooked! We had hamburgers, German sausage, cobbler, brownies and homemade ice cream.... then we ran out of daylight! And my camera ran out of charge... so I'll have to see if I can get some of Sherry, Kristie and Julia's pictures. The boys are already asking when we're going back and Kerry Don is already talking about a Razor... his toys!

That is funny we are looking at the razor too. Amarillo said they sold out this past week. I think we may just do a ranger. Looks like you guys had fun.
