Calgary Stampede 2010!

We've got two days left to go at Stampede! We've had lots of friends show up to say "Hi!" and we hope to see you down at the grounds. We're doing two shows a day at 1:30 and 3:30 PM in the Agricultural Building (the big green one south of the Saddledome). We're having a lot of fun - as usual - but missing our Terri! She was injured last week but was hoping to come down today. I'm trying to fill in for her but it just isn't the same...
Wrangler Heidi came down the other day for our annual Stampede Party, and she joined us in the demo ring on Sunday, as did Brenda's husband Guy. Thanks Heidi and Guy!

Whoever set up the demo ring put a big stack of good hay bales in the corner....guess where the horses head when we turn them loose? Free hay! Yahoo! Makes for a good laugh anyway. Ya Ya Susan and her daughter made a guest appearance yesterday as well, when they ran into the ring with a big purple suitcase for us to pack on the horse!

We saddle up our horse!

On our way to CALGARY STAMPEDE

Hi folks....good (well kind of good) to be out of the hills. We just rapped up a great Women's Retreat and Wine tasting. Our wine guy Martin from the Tamarack in Rocky Mountain House was unable to make it so he sent 18 bottles of wine....WOW! We had to take a picture with all the great gals! It was a night to remember...hey girls, as what goes on a wine tasting stays on a wine tasting! smile. So we are now out and ready for Calgary...but we have some bad news, I (Terri) broke some ribs and now can't do our string demo BUT we are still going to do our packing demo with three horses ( Jessie, Peso and Diesal) so please come on out and see us! We have already lined up for next year to do the string demo but now this way we see where we are going and what to expect! yee haw....Calgary here we come! Will keep you folks updated so stay tuned....
