On Wednesday of Spring Break, we journeyed back in time at
George Ranch Historical Park, a 23,000 acre working ranch. The ranch was passed down through four generations, strangely enough through the women of the family. We got to tour 4 different houses: from a log cabin, to a prairie home, to a Victorian mansion, to the final 1930s home. We went with two of my friends and their kids and had a great time. I think the kids really enjoyed the toys from the late 1800s! It was so nice to see them all running around playing outside and not thinking about video games!

My friends got some better pictures so I'll try to add some more later. It's been exciting to do all this fun stuff over Spring Break, but I'm exhausted and need a break from it!
