We started our long weekend with a day enjoying some of the activities around town. The annual Wagon Days parade took place in Ketchum so we sat in the sun with hundreds of other people along main street to watch the action. The famous "Big Rig" always comes last which is a series of very narrow wagons pulled by about 20 small mules. It is known to have passed over Galena in the pioneer days. It's fun for families and friends to watch while enjoying road side picnics and such.
Then it was time to get ready for the next season that is fast approaching, fall. Learning from our mistakes last year (needless to say) we gathered a free wood cutting permit and headed north with an empty trailer. We found what we like to call the "honey pot" of wood and made a relatively quick day of falling, marking, cutting, stacking, and splitting our wood.

Too bad you didn't have your third wheel (me) to help out this year. I'm glad you remembered to get a permit.
Quite a haul of wood! You're ready for the cold weather. The parade looks fun. Amazing wagons.
