Phoenix Rodeo

February 16, 2014       Rodeo

We decided to go to the rodeo in Phoenix this afternoon for something to do. It was Sunday so they usually give out awards for all the talented competitors that did barrell racing, goat dressing, steer wrestling, etc. It's very similar to the one in Calgary that we attended in the past. 
Imagine running into a few of the gals that we know (& usually compete in the rodeo) there. They were absolutely surprised!!!

Here we are Sandy, Mary, Judy, & Lori

Look at those lovely red boots!!  Definately made for dancing!

This horse was very talented walking sideways left, then right, backwards, & pawing the ground right foot then left with only a tap of the wand he used on the side of the horse's leg. 

This is called barrel racing & some of these competitors are FAST! It was a wonderful display of skill & horsemanship.
