Abilene Mud Fest

Abilene, Kansas about 90 miles west of Eskridge.
The old western cattle town on the Santa Fe Trail.
Leslie's cousin has a truck and he participates in these mud runs all over Kansas. Turns out his truck was broke but we went anyway. Chet and Christy ventured out with us.


As an added attraction for the kids, they have a foot race through the mud bog. $1 entry with winner taking all. Check out how many other girls entered? You got it right. Cassidy was the only female to enter and guess who took the cash. NOT the boys.
There she is leading the pack. After the first race, they asked for those over 12 who wanted to participate. Three other females handed their dollar over to Cassidy as well. She walked away $12 dollar richer. Not to mention all the mud and a few scraps on the bottom of her feet.

After the first race they both wanted to go again so Cassidy used her winnings to pay the entry fee for her and Corey to race again. This was with the older group.

Cassidy is learning that girls like to play in mud also. A girl owns and drives this pink truck.

Brooke enjoying the mud pit. This shows you how deep the pit really is.


Four little piggies after the show. They got to use the fire hose to rinse off.

Notice the sisterly love.
