Trekkies


We are officially trekkies in the Canberra Stake Pioneer Trek.

This weekend was training trek.  In case you were wondering, it was not fun.

Ok, it wasn't anything we didn't expect- well, killing a live chicken was  a bit of a surprise (no need to explain the splash of red above).  Somewhat hard to swallow for a vegi person.

These people are legit!  No messing around with port-o-potties, barbeques, and peach cobbler- all obvious amenities for the Santa Margarita Stake Pioneer Trek I participated in not to long ago!  I'm a weenie and "I have no problem with that".

We are ¿excited? for the anticipated 5 days of trudgery come September.  Yeehaw!

p.s. that fuzzy animal we are so cautiously taking a picture with is a real, live, proper auzzie wombat!

  3. Hilarious!!! You guys are great for agreeing to do this. You know everyone who is not in your group is going to be super jealous of the kids who are. You're kidding me with killing a live CHICKEN! And the wombat? Yikes. You're a trooper.
