A Cowboy Christmas: November 2018. Day 1 - Wagons Roll

<<Pre-trippie - a word from Jessie


Jessie the Yodelling Cowgirl writes:

Howdy folks, and welcome once again to the tale of our two pioneers. Today they venture over land and under sea, before they arrive at the good old homestead. Let my good friend Wild Gill Hiccup take up the story…


Hello again everyone! Before we plunge into the epic journey that is to come, let me set the scene for you.

Usually in November we spend a week with each of our families. Peter works for John Lewis and can’t easily get time off in December, so instead we take some leave in November. However, this year, things are slightly different. My dad went in for a hernia op in early November, and we’d arranged things so we could help out while he was recovering – and specifically, arranged that I would travel to my parents a few days earlier than Peter, so I could be on hand.

So we kicked off the holiday by spending Friday night to Wednesday morning in Preston with Peter’s mum and sister.





As well as the usual trips into town and to Dobbie’s garden centre with Peter’s mum, we also had a trip out to Barton Grange garden centre on our own. It really does go over the top for Christmas and the level of decoration is well worth seeing if you’re in the area.
