Reno here we come!

Chuck and I headed to Reno via San Francisco for the ultimate ranch roping by Martin Black for the Californio's...
While in Reno...we gambled our $10.00 each and were done!






The night sky from our hotel room was very nice!


It was an amazing home town feel show and we want to go back next year!










Handy, handy cowboys...or shall I call them buckaroo's!
















This was a great event, green ranch horse's brought into the arena. Each cowboy was given 16 min to saddle, get on, get use to and then rope a yearling all gentle. Was some good horsemanship.





















Buck Brannaman waiting for his colt.




























































Bull roping was the next fun event! Real working cowboys work some not so happy bulls....














































Watching broke horses and working cowboys was real cool!


Our view from the room..















Yep...seen the sign on the way in and had to stop on our way out!








































Notice the snow in the hills!




















Then we drove through it...there was more snow there then at home but once we hit the coast it was nice!















On the way home on West jet...















Leaving California...




















In the air..




















Coming into Alberta and almost home!
