100% Cowboy

 Jeff just returned from 4 days of "TREK".  This is the 5th one our home stake has done and Jeff is one of four men who have been on all 5 of them so they insisted he come even though he is serving in the YSA Ward and we don't even attend our home stake.  He is a good Man.  He is so over worked and over booked as it is and he willingly and with a great attitude went to serve some more.  This year they called the support staff "Wranglers"  and that is what he truly is--a Wrangler.  100% Cowboy--That is my man.
Jeff loves pioneer legends and stories.  At times I think he believes he was born in the wrong century.  We have been to Martin's Cove numerous times with these youth Treks as well as Young Adult Conferences.  Jeff and Ty rode the 35 miles from the 6th crossing across Rocky Ridge into Rock Hollow on horse back before Ty left on his mission.  Jeff has ridden it on horse back another time since then.  It is truly sacred ground.  I missed this year as I was needed more at home than I was on the trail.
I think Jeff likes the old western clothes as much as he likes the experience.  Here he is showing off his new "Duds" for this years trek.

                                           Here he is on the day he returned.  Dirty, unshaven, exhausted, but pleased knowing his work was well done.
