| Wagon Ho! |

 Here's an idea for anyone who remembers playing "wild west" with fondness. This summer grandma and grandpa or mom and dad can take the kids on a real- life cowboy adventure with Teton Wagon Train and Horse Adventure. You'll explore the beautiful backcountry of Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks on horses and in covered wagons just like our forefathers. Activities include riding, roping, paddling and all the ways one can enjoy two million acres of beauty.
Guests ride comfortably in the smooth-riding covered wagons equipped with rubber tires and padded seats, or ride along side the group on gentle horses. Enjoy nature hikes, swimming, trail rides on horseback, learning to handle a rope, canoeing, exploring the beautiful country or just relaxing under the tall pines and big Wyoming night sky. Evenings are spent singing with the cowboys around the campfire and listening to yarns and cowboy poetry about the Old West.
Trips begin June 20, 2005 and leave every Monday through August 22, returning on Thursdays.
For more information about Teton Wagon Train & Horse Adventures call 1-888-734-6101 or e-mail wagontrain@ai5.net for information and reservations.

 If you are planning a trip to Arizona soon, your options have increased. Grand Canyon Airlines is offering Grand Canyon air and ground tour packages departing daily from the Scottsdale Airport. This tour departs from the Scottsdale Airport in the morning, offering views of spectacular golf courses as well as the beautiful communities of Carefree and Cave Creek.
A visual treat for every age group, the scenic flight includes views of the Horseshoe Reservoir, Verde River, Montezuma Well, Tonto National Forest, the red rocks of Sedona, Flagstaff's NAU Skydome, Lowell Observatory and Humphrey's Peak, and Arizona Snowbowl. Before hopping on a motor coach to explore the Canyon, guests learn about the Canyon's history through the IMAX presentation of "Grand Canyon - The Hidden Secrets." Total tour time is approximately nine hours. Westwind Air Service also launched new bi- weekly flights to the Grand Canyon to complement their existing scenic air tours of the Grand Canyon and Monument Valley.
The one-hour flight departing from Deer Valley Airport will be available every Tuesday and Saturday to accommodate those looking for independent day trips and transportation for weekend ski-trips.
