going to a rodeo

I saw a little bull riding on OLN last month. "You're a better man than I am, Gunga Din!"

the rodeo was a lot of fun, but boy did xsteen and i look out of place, as we picked our way through the manure on the fairgrounds. it was in EAGLE, CO, site of the kobe incident. i imagined SG and whyisa ROR'ing at us, as we were dressed inappropriately and we were trying to breathe through our mouths so as not to smell the livestock smells... and every once in awhile we would gasp when we got a big whiff!

the coolest thing was the teeny kids riding the sheep, in an event called MUTTON BUSTING. it was just adorable, those kids had to have been no more than 5-6 years old and they came out hanging on the backs of these sheep for dear life.

we leave CO for VA today, we won't get in til late though.
