When out for our exploratory trip, our first stop was at an ATM, where Gordon withdrew $100, just to make sure that his ATM card works. It did, and that is a relief. This is very much a cash economy, so we need to make sure that we can get the cash to keep operating.
Shortly after, we came across a parade and fiesta, where there were these little girls dressed up as angels.
And right around the corner was a horse-drawn carriage with a driver to match.
And we sometimes run into things that we just don't expect. We were looking for a grater to grate cheese or potatoes, and ran across a shop that sells ....
HORSESHOES!
And these are not horseshoes for playing games, but the ones that are applied to the hooves of horses. I asked if I could take a picture, and they were thrilled to have me take it. In fact, after the first one, they insisted that I take a second one [this one] where they posed for it.
Finished or not, Ben has to turn in his exam tonight at midnight Mountain time, so he will be free to explore with us tomorrow and after. He had a nap this afternoon during our power outage, so he may push that deadline to its limit.
