B is for Buffalo

To learn all about "B" we headed out to Antelope Island for the day on Friday. We saw lots and lots of Buffalo.

Porter, Me, and Landen (it was nap time so Hattie was asleep in the Jeep) posing for a picture in front of one of the herds of Buffalo. These things were HUGE!

Taking a rest from our tour of the ranch on Antelope Island. Since it was pioneer day they had all sorts of activities to do. The boys helped the grandpa make praire diamond rings (a ring made from a nail) they also roped some cows. (The batteries died in the camera so no pictures.)

Landen, Porter, Grandpa Barker, and my brother (not in the picture) all got into a pioneer game of stick ball. They all thought it was a lot of fun to run around the bases!

This is a picture of Antelope island. You have to drive across a land bridge to get there so the Great Salt Lake is on both sides of you. I love the reflection of the island in the water. We sure had a lot of fun here. We plan on going back so we can "play" (hopefully float) in the Great Salt Lake.
