You had a flat tire too? Gads!
Did you see ours? It was bad, but we are such wimps. ;~D
The print poster is very cool. Does she still compete or train horses herself, or is she just teaching now?
She still competes. It's amazing. She was about to qualify last year again for the NFR. Would have been the only person to qualify for it for 5 generations, but she got hurt pretty bad.
She was somewhere where they always close the gate during a run because there is a short alley way, then cement. The guy who was suppose to be minding the gate, was visiting when she started her run. After the 3rd barrell people noticed the gate wasn't closed and started hollering to get the gate closed. The guy swung it shut, but to late. Her and her horse crashed into it so hard they both went over, and landed on the cement. She broke a rib and it punctured her lung. Luckily a doctor was in the stands and came and got a chest tube in her or she would have died. She told us she felt really bad, because she only got the Dr. last name. Never found out how to get hold of him to thank him.
She says she'll keep competeing till she's 105:). She's got to be in her late 60's at least now.

Oh, and no I didn't see your flat tire:) Flat tires are par for the course for us. Even if we put brand new tires on we always have at least one flat:). I'm just glad it was on the RV and not Charlies truck or the trailer. That would have been a bit hairy. That trailer and the load it had in it was almost too much for Charlies truck. He did not have trailer brakes. We've never had trailer brakes, but really would have been nice with that load.
