What can you say… sometimes the Bull just comes out ahead. Cowboy took the beating that was dished out on him, but he brushed off his chaps, smacked his felt hat and put it all behind him. Sometimes, we all need to just do the same. Comments welcome.

It was an honour to be awarded by the Calgary Sports Council, and congratulated by Mayor Bronconnier.

Adam and Teammate Bobby attended today’s event, and took this photograph of our Mayor and I.

“Showboy” was aptly named and is an excellent Saddle Bronc. Frank C. showed his true grit as a cowboy on this ride. His calm/cool words to me were, ”I heard it (collarbone) snap”. He will be back on the rodeo circuit next year! Comments welcome.
