Old Timey - Good Timey

We have a little place in Durango called the Bar D Chuckwagon. It was founded (and is still owned) by Cy Scarborough about a majillion years ago or so. He's done a really great job over the years of getting some fantastic musicians to join the show as well. If you live in Durango and haven't been there, you don't really live in Durango. This place is an institution! In fact, in 2002 when the huge missionary ridge fire swallowed up half the Animas Valley in a hurricane of flames, local firefighters made a stand to save the Bar D. It was the only structure saved on that stretch of road. I'm being a little dramatic, but it's seriously awesome.

Anyway, we took Norah to the Bar D for the first time this weekend. She had quite a big weekend, actually, but more on that later. Here are a few photos of Norah's first Bar D dinner. Oh, did I mention that the show comes with a real cowboy BBQ dinner!?! I'm telling you guys, this place is AWESOME!

Waiting (mostly) patiently for the show to start.

Mmmm, baked beans and BBQ chicken, just like a real cowgirl!

Clapping to the song with Grandma, Grandpa and Uncle Bob.

Trying desperately to stay awake. She made it through the whole show!
