Cove Fort Days

On Friday we went to Cove Fort Days. Every year they have a couple of days where all the missionaries dress up as pioneers, and they have all kinds of cool stuff going on. (Including free hot dogs and drinks.)

We rode two kinds of wagons...
and Robyn and Ben got to pull a handcart full of kids.

My kids were just fascinated with the harps they had there.
There was a guy there who had taken a slat out of his beehive and put it in glass so that you could see all the bees crawling around and what they had in each little comb. It was so cool!

I also liked the lady who made flower arrangements out of hair. It was crazy how real the flowers looked, and they were made entirely out of human hair!

But what my kids wanted most was to ride the stagecoach. And just as they got in line, the stagecoach driver took a break. So they told us to go sit in the shade, and we could be the first ones on when he came back.

Two hours later, he came back to his stagecoach, we took a ride, and finally went home.

It was lots of fun, but next year we'll ride the stagecoach first thing.
