A steer wrestler about to tackle his 4 legged adversary.Once again for the second day, the slack competition was wrapped up a few minutes after 3pm, and we were closed by 3:30. The crowds have been OK these past two days, but the majority of spectators are school kids on field trips. School kids = no money = no sales. These 3 days of rodeo are not good sales days, but we sell a few things, and we still open the trailer at about 8:30 each morning. Tomorrow is the big parade, and the beginning of 4 rodeo performances, when sales will pick up.
Laila's feeding Sami Grandpa's left over Ben & Jerry'sChandra was on a plane this morning for Monterey, CA, where she has to take care of some estate business, and pick up her parents car. Marc is picking Laila up this afternoon, and taking her to Aunt Claudia, & Uncle Marty's in Phoenix, where she will spend the weekend. Marc is flying to Monterey Friday, and they're both driving back this weekend. I think I'm getting tired just thinking about their schedule for the next few days.
Laila's ready to go for a ride, "C'mon Grandpa".
We were told yesterday, that there will only be about 2 hours of slack competition this morning, starting around 10am. The activity will just be lady barrel racers, so perhaps Grandma & Laila will get over to the arena to watch some of the action.
Yep, we're hams.
