You know you live in Jackson Hole when...

Living here in Jackson has been quite an adventure this summer. I have loved every minute of it. But, I definitely have come to realize that her at the Bar T 5 we are very different. You know when you work at the Bar-T five in Jackson Hole when…

-The words hames, quarter straps, crupper, britchen, are a part of our everyday language…
-You go on your morning run and you run into a moose and her baby...
-Your little finger has to go into the T.V. when you press a wrong button…
-When you "sprinkle" a little water on someone (a boy usually) you get a bath in the creek…
-There are thirty plus people living within one mile of each other…
-We understand what a poop run is…(and enjoy doing it)
-We get attacked by a mountain man and Indians on a regular basis…
-Some of us still can’t get married…even after it happens twice a night…
-There is a cuddle couch that is reserved here every Thursday night…I have a hard time sitting on that couch.
-Scooping poop becomes a favorite pass time…(that’s what we like to tell ourselves )…
-When you wake up in the morning and come into the family room there are at least two people sleeping on the floor because it is more comfortable then their bed...
-The word shazam has a whole new meaning…Just ask our boss to explain…
-Rumors about you are heard clear up on the mountain, but only repeated when true. Our boss: “So I heard a rumor about you is it true…I don’t know you tell me what the rumor is.”
-We have no bubbles here at the bar-t 5…
-John Wayne is everyone’s favorite cowboy-you don’t mess with John Wayne I have come to realize…
-Cowgirls don’t take any crap from boys…
-You start saying step up, whoa, swing, and easy, to all your co-workers and your car.

Jackson Hole

This is where I'm living for the summer! are you jelous?

Jackson Hole is going great! All the people I work with are so much fun! I’ve had a lot of questions about work and what I do so the average day here at work......work starts at 9;00 and we work until 12;30 (AKA lunch)-I don’t know if I can go back to top roman and peanut butter and Jelly sandwiches because we get feed real food up here.- Then at about 3 o’clock we head back out to harness up the horses. After that we come back inside and get our cowgirl and cowboys clothes on and head back out to greet all the guests that are coming. Which I have meet some really crazy, cool, weird....you get the picture-people that you can think of. We then go and hitch up the team of horse to the wagon and take a wagon load of people up to the camp which is about a 20 min wagon ride, which I then entertain them and answer any questions that they have about horses or anything that they would like to throw my way. We then drop the guests off and if we have a double show we drive back down and pick up the next show. If not then we unhitch the horses and go and help serve all the people. After all the shows and all the people are gone we unhitch and feed the horse. And then head in to eat some dinner, Which on a double show is about 10;30 or so. But work is going really good, I’m having a lot of fun up here, I mean there paying ME to work with horses, and talk with people, what more could you ask for?
