Our trip to the Old West
My first thought after my husband announced our 3-1/2 week “western holiday” was that it takes five suitcases … and that’s just me, much less what my three girls, you will need. It turned out that we have developed a strategy to take advantage of our “dream” vacation. We investigated all the people that visit, made plans to go see the most popular hot spots, carefully plotted our driving route, and then shopping for our kids! Seriously, for the next 6 months it would pull a map of the U.S. and trace our route driving with the girls, which explains a lot of drama the exciting journey that would take.
We flew to Denver, Co in Charlotte, North Carolina. We rented a van and headed straight to Estes Park, two hours northwest of Denver. As soon as we arrived at this charming, picturesque Alps-like people who knew he could be one of our favorites. Craggy peaks, endless blue sky, meadows dotted with wildflowers, and many waters falling into pools still breathe our distance and took us to be renewed, refreshed, restored. We knew we were on the ride of your life. If you visit in Estes Park, be sure to check the time before time. We were there the last week of July and nighttime temperatures were in the 30s. Trail Ridge Road is magnificent. It is in the Rocky Mountain National Park, nps.gov / romo and is the highest continuous road in the U.S.. We walked around the top of Trail Ridge Road and Bear Lake on the first day, to the delight of my three girls, 13, 9 and 4. Needless to say, I collapsed into bed that night, exhausted, but filled with the knowledge that we were right at the beginning of our journey westward with the anticipation of an incredible adventure in the store …. it would be great!

If you have skin cowboy hats you’ll agree with me that it is very difficult when it comes to cleaning. An air compressor or a vacuum can be done by blowing dirt away, but what about stains?
The spots may be seen by repelling stains or a hat cleaning sponge. And even for the dirt, it is recommended that you use a soft brush hat. Makes the job much easier! John B. Stretson, designer and distributor of leather hats first U.S. cow boy, had named his first creation, “head of the plains.” In old days you could say that a cowboy announced from the simple observation of the line of his hat.
Cowhide hats boy went to a variety of uses. Some of them are:
