Christmas on the Prairie

[Iggy]

Mule Packer/Chip has asked me if I was going to post this old story here on the forum.
He says it's become a tradition, but if you're tired of it, blame him!!


Oh, one other thing, that kid shakin' hands with Santa is me when I was in the 5th grade.





Ok, so here it is.
Christmas on the Prairie


Merry Christmas from our outfit to yours!

Now it is officially the Christmas season.

Always a good read.

As I told Iggy, no matter how many times we read "Christmas on the Prairie," it never gets old...especially during the holiday season. Thanks, Iggy, for posting it. And a very Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Iggy, as often as you post it, I'll continue to read "Christmas on the Prairie".
And when you don't, my Christmas will somehow be less. Thank You.

Christmas on the Prairie should be posted every holiday season by Iggy---it isn't the Christmas season without my reading of this story

Thanks Griz

 

[Iggy]

Thanks folks! Your comments have got my chest swolled out with pride like a lightning struck steer.



Merry Christmas.

If this, the Wyoming Wind Sock, The Rattlesnake Pile Picture, the Wyoming State Police Stories EVER get old, throw me in my grave and bury me.

Have you folks noticed that the two fellers that seem to know the most about cowboyin' are both named Chip.

RE: Prairie Christmas

I have read the Thanksgiving and Christmas pieces for the past 14 years, and I never tire of either.
I don't think that it would be either holiday without those stories.
Having lived in WY for 12 years and visited some of the isolated homesteads around the state I can visualize the events in the early days of the 20th century.
I have since relocated to LA (Lower Alabama), but still enjoy hearing about the friends and places I left behind in WY.
Merry Christmas to all of our S&W friends and family.

Have to say , I've been here a few years but I've never read this before . If this isn't a Christmas tradition I don't know what is .

Always a must read here, just like watching Die Hard.
