Reindeer farm


Yesterday Joya and I went with Tim to the Oregon Youth Challenge Program. He has been the Oregon spokes person for a few years now and goes to visit the camp site a couple times a year. We went with him and it takes 2.5 hours to get to Bend OR, which is where the camp is located. It took us a little longer because I had to use the restroom a few times along the way. On our way home we stopped right outside of Redmond at the a Reindeer farm. Joya got to pet and feed "Santa's" reindeer. It was very fun and interesting!! Did you know that reindeer loose their racks every year? They re-grow new ones every year...that's a lot of growth in one year for some of them!! Here are some fun pictures!! She had a good time and then slept almost the whole way home...I am pretty sure she would have if we wouldn't have had to stop for an accident in the road. We were detoured along a logging gravel road. It was an adventure, but had beautiful scenery.
