in the heat of it

LA Rodeo was this weekend, so was away from the computer for a couple days. The grounds were beautiful, but were way out in the far-beyond-crazy-sticks-bumfk-egypt way west valley where it was hot. Way hot. The good side of it being out in heat-ville was that it kept the botox/sequined-cowboy-hat crowd away, leaving a more genuine rodeo crowd than you usually find at the LA Rodeo. Did I mention it was hot?! Not much to show except all animal pics... (like that Dad?) Oh, and the cowboy riding the bull with the number 218 (second and third pics)? That's a cowgirl. She was teeny, but she was a damn good rider. Fun weekend. But it was hot.
