The Pioneer Handcart Trek
Waiting for Logan and Delacey to come in from the three day trek across hot, arid terrain.
It was HOT out that day! Actually it was HOT ALL WEEK (in the 100's)
Waiting in the shade was nice...
The first handcart companies cresting the hill!
These youth worked HARD for three straight days. Where's my brother and sister?
They got a small idea of what the Latter-Day Saint pioneers went through to be able to make the church what it is today. But THOSE people were on the trail for 100 times longer than these kids, and MANY people (babies too) died.
Logan's pioneer family.

Here they are! Dirty, but happy.
