OH MY! That was a hurricane!

Last night, we were at the Rodeo doing the concessions... and it was a torrential DOWNPOUR! How miserable for the crowd and cowboys! We did pretty well with our concessions, despite the crappy weather. The boys didn't get to sell any raffle tickets, but plan for tonight, and the night of the 4th. BUMMER! We hope the weather shapes up for the remaineder of the weekend...
After we did concessions until 9:45, Lisa and the kids and I made a run for it in the rain to the Yukon, and my flip flops got stuck in the river of mud and poop! It was at least 7 inches deep with water near the concessions/restrooms! HOLY MOLEY! So, we drove to the west side of the arena, and proceeded to watch the rodeo, and have a few cocktails. VERY FUN, and very nice to visit with Lisa...... been too darn busy lately for socializing!
Anyhow, we have a BBQ tonight, then a family reunion/65th Anniversary party for my grandparents tomorrow..... Then Jeffey has the fireworks for the city to get ready for, and shoot off at the rodeo.... the kids and I will be going to the rodeo, too. So, we have a busy couple of days.... come and join us!

  1. Man, 7 inches is DEEP, girl!

    When to Crawford fireworks start? We've been trying to make a final decision on where to go tonight. At first we were going to Mt. Rushmore, but this morning we canceled that trip. So we've been looking at all the others in our area.
