Howdy Partner



             



I went to a rodeo this weekend and I can't stop thinking about how much fun we had! What a blast! We watched cattle roping, bare-back horse riding, and of course, bull riding. Cowboy hats and boots and belt buckles were the norm. The real fun happened after all regular rodeo events, the rodeo dance. Ages ranged from two to sixty-two on the dance floor and let me just tell you, people had some moves! It was so fun to see all the various partners being sent spinning on the floor. My roommate from Texas taught us how to two step and we whirled around the dance floor, clapping and shouting out old country tunes (Thanks mom for always listening to country in the car when I was growing up. Knowing the words to 90's country songs has been a dormant skill of mine for many years now.) We sat on hay bails, ate kettle corn, and danced until our feet hurt. Another example of how unexpected adventures tend to be the most fun.
