Here are some fun pictures from the Rodeo.  Chester's team won the Range race, which was very "western".  This consisted of taking you saddle, bridle and boots and placing them in the middle of the arena.  A team mate holds your horse at one end of the arena, while you hoof it down in your socks in a foot race to your pile of gear.  Put your boots on, grab your saddle and bridle and race to horse.  Saddle your horse with out a blanket and bridle it, mount up and race back to the other end.  Most of the horses didn't care for the no blanket thing and bucked in protest.  The team also placed in the trailer loading with a time of 36 seconds.  Chester won the "Best Horse" for the whole competition.  way to go Done It!!!
