I went up to the hills and watched this a while

back. Since 1949, a group has gotten together

every year to re-create the route the settlers

took over the mountains. They all have to wear

period clothing, and all wheels on wagons have to

be wooden or with the metal bands, no rubberized

tires etc. with the only exception being grandson's

safety helmet.

Here is a video I took of them coming in to the town

of Placerville, California, the last stop after about

a week's trip:

They do cattle drives and such here in Kansas every year also.

I love that area and I really miss California.

Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed watching the video.



Now we need a theme song:

Nah there is only one cowboy theme song.
