Pony Express

Its that time again, time for the pony express. Every year there is a reenactment of the pony express that back in the 1860's to carry mail from St.Joseph, MO to Sacramento, CA on horse back. The Tripp's have been doing this for generations now.Marshael just received his 15 years patch.Something that he wants to carry on with our kids. This year we took the mail from Murray park in down town salt lake to Simpson springs out on the west desert. We were very lucky that the weather was good for us since everyone else had to deal with the rain and mud. Normally by the time the day is over they run a total of 4 miles, but this year marsh ran 12 miles total( due to lack of riders and a pregnant sister). You can read more about it at xphomestation.com
This is Marsh swearing in.

On the way home coming a crossed the west desert there was a herd of horses(about 125 horse)were on their way to get water when they split our truck.
