Also posted on Outpost.
If you have a great idea for a Wild West experience please submit your thoughts.
Last year we had a great time with the Laura Ingalls Wilder Museum tours and she is one of the original "Women of the Wild West". She is listed in the book of the same name.
There is so much this farmgirl experience can offer, so stay tuned for upcoming announcements and invitations to the Farmgirls on the Loose events.
Fort Bridger, Wyoming, in the SW of Wyoming.
The Cowgirl Museum in Fort Worth, Texas, to include the Stockyards.
Moscow, Idaho
These are three ideas so far.
Get your GPS out and let's go.

What about stopping by one of the lovely National Parks in Utah??? I'd LOVE to host the group at my farm in Elsinore, UT - just an hour or so North of Bryce Canyon. Maybe I could even join you all from here on!...
XOXO, Libbie

Wende,
I had emailed you a couple weeks or so ago for more info . . you did respond to me. I don't have any ideas for any place here in MY part of the world in particular. But, my daughter (also in the sisterhood) and I are planning a trip that will take us to the northern part of Colorado, into Wyoming, Idaho, Utah, etc.
So, if it "jives" with our schedule then we'd be delighted to join in on this expedition if possible. So . . . I'll be looking for more info on what/when/where.
THANKS!

Well Wende, I guess I've given you basics for our road trip . . and since we wanna meet up with farmgirls all along the ways, maybe we just need to work together on this and get this road trip planned!!!!
I can sure go for it and fill in the gaps of what I already shared with you.

Okay ladies,
We have had quite a bit of interest for the road trip and the dates most compatable are the end of to the first part of July.
The kids should be out of school by this time and moms need a break.
Please send me an email if you are interested in the road trip. Need to include you in our plans.
Meeting up with farmgirls across the states.

I would love to join in! The beginning of July works for me, it will be my birthday present to myself. Maybe I will have the glamper done by then. It will give me the push I need. Hopefully my garden will be OK without me. I will have to give DH detailed watering instructions. I will e-mail you Wende.

Since you are going to Pocatello, will you be going through Fort Bridger? I can set up tours for you if you want me too. I am committing to attend the get together in Baggs, but not sure if I can make the rest of the trip. (not enough vacation time)

Diana . . . BEAUTIFUL picture!!! That is a PILE of snow! We had the same thing in 2 days right after Christmas. Takes a lot of effort and time to clear it away, doesn't it. Don't work too hard at it. I'd help you shovel if I could.
'Twould be GREAT if you can bring your SIL!!!!

Hello there,
Wow I got back here just in time. If you're looking for awesome places in history, we're in SW Utah, about 90 minutes from Zion National Park, and less than an hour from Cathedral State Park in Nevada. The claim to Wild West women around here has more to do with the very strong Mormon family history, including that of the traditional polygamist families. No, they're not bad people.
If you need a place to camp overnight, we've got room amongst the animals (they'll be penned up). Got water, but no place to dump RV's.
We're about 50 miles west of Cedar City, and 65 miles north of St. George. Also within about 30 miles of one of the original iron kilns in Utah.
Shari Thomas, back after a 2 year break for heart issues. Ready to get on with life now.Four Country Gals |

Hi Shari,
Shucky darn! The Women of the Wild West Road trip route, stops and such are all planned at this point. We'll be starting in Baggs, WY, heading west to the Pocatello, ID area, then north to Butte, MT and over to Coeur d' Alene, ID, Orofino, ID and our "finale" will be at Tea Party at MaryJanes Farm in Moscow, ID.
So, we'll have to take a "rain check" on your invitation for this trip. But, we'd love to invite you to check out: www.farmgirlsontheloose.blogspot.com. There are more specific details there and there will be more information over the next few weeks.
And, you can go to the ACROSS THE FENCE forum section and check out the thread there "CALLING FARMGIRLS . . WY,ID,MT,WA . . . ". There is also a bit more info there. If you can join us anywhere along this route, we'd LOVE to meet you!
Thanks for the invite!! Perhaps a more southerly trip across and out to California will be in the Farmgirls future.
