Rockin' R Ranch Tour

Last month, we went on a fieldtrip with some random homeschoolers to the Rockin’ R Ranch in Mesa.  It’s the only  working ranch with it’s own stoplight in front of it, because it’s smack in the middle of the city.  A few of our dear friends were able to join us and it was great fun.  The kids got to learn about native life, check out a teepee, use a primitive grinder, weigh and pan for gold, create their own ranch name with native American symbols, turn a lasso and rope a bull, see how primitive tools were used, and pet some sheep!  They also got to watch a performance and see an old saw being used as an instrument.   A fun and educational day was had by all!  I hope you enjoy the pictures in the slideshow!
