Rancho Days

I had a field trip to Rancho Days. It was fun until 2 things: I learned that the youngest (like me) had to clean the chamber pots. Yech! And, I had to go into mud that was cold, had rocks in it, smelled like dog poo, and you had to go in bare foot so you could mix it up. But the fun things were: spinning and weaving, learning to do the Mexican hat dance, cooking our lunch, the games, the fiesta at the end, making candles, and taking a tour of the rancho. It was awesome!
