Sunday Linda and I went to the mud bogs in Del Norte which is about 20 miles east of us. Very small town. The bogs were held about 3 miles out of town in a desert area. They dug a long trench (about 100 yards long) and put some of the dirt back in and than put a lot of water in it to make mud.
This was our first mud bog and we enjoyed it, other than the extreme sun which we have at the higher elevations. It was about 85 degrees out.
Most of the locals brought those 10x10 foot quick set up canopies, but we had to sit in the sun
I waited until today to post this, as we finally got windows live writer reinstalled. It was a real challenge and in the end Bobbie downloaded it onto a memory stick and gave it to me to install…go figure.
If you are interested here is the link to more pictures.
