Pioneer trek

So our mom could not post this on her blog so we decided to see if it would work on ours. This is her text and video...

Last week I went on a pioneer trek with Josh, Natalie and Jake. It was a wonderful experience. It help us all gain a greater understanding of the faith and courage the pioneers had. I feel it also helped my teenagers realize that they could do hard things too and that even though they do not have to pull handcarts across the country, that they have strength and courage to face their own challenges and trials. Before going, we read stories about a couple of our own ancestor pioneers-William Lobark Skidmore and Leopold Wirthlin.
