Shenandoah Vacation - Wagon Ride

After the rains of the previous day they trails were too slippery to go horseback riding but they were just right for a wagon ride around the resort.  Duke and Doc lead us around the resort while our guide Sam told us all about the history of the resort and the area.  We were amazed that big as the horses were they were not full grown and would gain another 1,000lbs.  Chris has always had a special fondness for draft horses and we would feed and visit these horses many times during our visit.
As you can see Titus wiggled his way to the co-pilot position.
After the wagon ride we ate lunch and played games at the cabin.  Then in the afternoon we went back to the marina, this time for the boys and I to take out a kayak. 
On our paddle we saw a huge snapping turtle eat a chicada off the surface of the water, baby bunnies run back to their home and more geese.  After the paddle the boys wanted to see how close they could get to the geese. Eventually they got too close and the daddy goose turned and chased them much to the amusement of the adults.
