August 31 - Bar D Chuckwagon

For many years our family has enjoyed listening to a chuckwagon, cowboy band called the Bar D Wranglers. They are located in Durango, CO, about an hours drive from where we used to live. They have been open for 44 years. This year we went to celebrate Janessa's 18th birthday. Rossella's Brother-in-Law was also celebrating his birthday. So we got to spent time with family that we haven't seen in quite a while.

Before each show the wranglers will sit in a podium and play a few songs, sell CD's, and anyone who wants to can come play with them. Which is exactly what our cousins did. they have been playing string instruments for as long as I can remember and where very good.

And they did.

Happy Birthday Janessa and Uncle Dan!!!!!!!!!!
