The Rodeo

At the Crazy Horse Monument under construction in the Black Hills of South Dakota we went to our first Rodeo. These guys were the real deal and believe me this made football look like a quilting bee! When you see these bulls with red eyes all fired up to eat your lunch or a wild snortin' pack of horse muscle ready to stomp your sorry butt I think a line-backer with his jock on sideways is a reaaal pussycat!:

Gettin' ready to ride!

Ridin'

Holdin' on...

A little rasslin' to wake up....

Calf ropin' just for a break.

Back to the ridin'......

This was a short ride.....

But the cowboys still ride...

And the cowgirls ride....

And the future gets ready to ride.
