1996 Western National Rendezvous

Well, my wife tells me that on Facebook it is Throwback Thursday so I'm throwin' back to 1996. Back to July of '96 to the Original Western National Rendezvous!
In 1990 and again in 1996 the Western National Rendezvous was held just below Powder River Pass in the magnificent Bighorn Mountains of Wyoming!  God's Country for sure! Just below 9,000 feet in a high country park on the headwaters of the North Fork of Powder River, it was a most beautiful setting for such doin's and the weather was gorgeous as well.
So, for this Throwback Thursday I'm going to throw back to my family enjoying this great event!
I hope y'all enjoy this little trip back in time!  It sure set me to thinkin' maybe it's about time I head for rondyvoo fer sure and fer certain!
Until we make camp again, watch yer topknot!
