Location: Texas | Made reservations to go to Pendleton! So excited. We have been twice before but have to say it is one of our favorite big rodeos to go to including the NFR. As much as I love Cheyenne, Salinas and Houston, I love the queens jumping over the rail. I love the Indian Relay Race. I love the barrel racing on the grass. Did I mention that I am excited? Sooooo excited. |

Location: 31 lengths farms | I've never been to the round up, always dreamed of it. But have been to the 4th of July barrel race on that course. Single most fun thing I've ever done on horseback in my life!!! What a rush running across the grass!

Location: Texas | It is a great rodeo. I think everybody needs to go at least once. We have been before but are getting older and my husband has some health issued and I am afraid if we don't go now, that it might not happen. It is a long way from Texas. I just casually mentioned to my sister that I would love to go back one more time and her husband said Let's Go.
The people are so nice and the history so rich. |

I cannot imagine the fun of making that run. |

He should. And it would be an experience neither of you would forget. |

| There is one rider and four horses. They run a lap on the first, jump to the second, run a lap on that one, jump to the third, etc. Done bareback. There's usually some pretty crazy wrecks, and it's pretty exciting to watch! |

There's usually some pretty crazy wrecks, and it's pretty exciting to watch! Yes, crazy horses with the biggest guy trying to hold them. The riders are really good making the dismount and remount. Sitting in the stands, we heard the different tribes trashing talking each other. Got the impression sometimes they don't like the other tribes. Gets really wild.
