Okay, so there I was in the bleachers, enjoying the rodeo, when I looked down and behind me, only to discover I was sitting right above where the wrangler-butted GUYZ were suitin’ up to ride. (My camera was instantly redirected.)
I was relieved to see hoof-proof horn-proof vests and neck braces gettin’ strapped on.
Along with lots of taping.
Chawin’ and spittin’.
(Notice I’ve climbed down from the bleachers by now.)
Now HERE’S a glamper!
Home to Rodney Atkins. Wouldn’t you like to meet HIS entourage (sponsored by Massey Ferguson tractors)?
Eventually, I wandered off to see the handmade dress that won first place at the county fair portion of the Dillon, Montana festivities.
And of course I had to make friends with the hat maker. Here’s Larry steaming a newly made hat for that perfect hat fit.
There’s nary a Larry Hat I’d pass on. All of them were classic heirlooms in the making.
Oh Yes!
