Ya it was crowded walking around everywhere today. This was the last day to qualify at the rodeo for showdown Sunday tomorrow. Top prize in each rodeo event? $100 grand.
It's one of the biggest invitational rodeos, and they have been bucking stock in this arena since 1912.

Good morning all.
Went by the gunsmith's Thurs. afternoon, had to carry him some ammo.
He's changing out a barrel on my Winchester '92 in 25-20.
Any way I thought ya might get a chuckle out of the name of the road he lives on.His shop is behind his house.

Yeah, well someone had to do it.
The original barrel was bent, and had some kinda gap or bulge.
Hopefully after this it will be a shooter.
Thinkin, I may get her back this week.
I so want to shoot a coyote with it. :o :lol:

beautiful morning in the neighborhood .... 76 on the way to 88 ... humidity is up and you can feel it .... while the town sprays on a regular basis, there is so much standing water that it comes as no surprise we have a very healthy population of mosquitoes .. :cry:
