Outing with Grandma Ruby



So Ella, Roc and I took Grandma Ruby on an adventure to feed the elk today. It is nice because it is only about a 15 minute drive (and could be a pleasant one yet Roc prefers to scream the whole way:)). We got there and since it was a week day it was not too crowded. We watched outside for a while, but it was a bit cold so we went into the visitor center and discovered that they have some large windows with chairs so you can watch them feeding them very close up. In fact one large Elk was tapping his antlers on the window. Ella wanted to pick up the baby one and then later wanted to know if she could ride on them. We all had a great time and I really want to sign up to ride the truck out into the field where they feed them, however I think we will need to leave Roc home for that one as the lady at the center said it is pretty cold on the truck and the info sheet said the truck is loud. Here's a few pictures of our exciting afternoon.
