Hoss, you've been through a rodeo of your own lately, and probably taking it a bit easy . I thought you'd like some nice shots of the action times to look forward to.

Rodeo has been ramping up now and will be full bore run this summer. I plan to attend some . I have been notified of the need to help gear up, warm up and cool down for some events this summer. I responded that I'd love to.Wish I could see them all .

Have some favorite foods while you're dallied at the rail

Of course this is also for the cowboys in heart on the forum too. Our proud American tradition.

Here's to cowboys, Hoss




















Take care of yourself. You'll be back in the saddle in no time.

Now , Sharon, you know how to cheer Uncle Marlin up right quick!

Nice post!!

Beautiful pics. I wish you well Leftlane .Tomorrow is the Run for the Roses.

Simply beautiful !!!! If only pictures could talk..

Great shots of Hailey !

Lets add some more for you.

Im trying to remember, you have a family member that you shared very nice photos of a long time ago. In Spanish attire and gear. I think ? Those were very nice.

The first two are also Hailey.


I rode like this when I was a kid, and I still do ...












Metallic Cat

Majestic animals!

Those handy cowgirls draw in some guys who know there way around tge NFR. This isn't much of an action pic but it's my neighbors Shane and Taylor Hanchey. About as good of folks as you'd ever neet in or out of the arena. His invitational calf roping has expanded to include break away and youth events and is now the largest invitational roping in the country. Big shot in the arm for local businesses that week too.

Yes, your cousin Heidi . She was stylin on those horses .

That's a great shot of Shane and Taylor.To me, anyone on a horse is an action shot. I can just imagine them launching across the arena at any moment. That's very neat about the growth of break away and youth events . Kids who get into this outdoor sporting , or even winding up working as a hand , end up being good workers.

Sometime if you want to see superb athletic horses and riders, watch a pro polo event. I see them once in a while on TV. Im sure there's more on YouTube. They are awesome riders. The maneuvers the horses do are unmatched in any horse sports event. They are mix breeds, with Quarter horse, Arabian, thoroughbred lineage being dominant . They look amazing. Perfect conformation .

Fun pics of a true made in the USA horse.

Nice pictures Sharon. Cowgirl at heart?

You do seem to understand the things I hold dear Miss Sharon. I was and continue to be impressed with what kind of young men and women the youth rodeo competition produces.
