The annual Roundup rodeo has come and gone for another year. Thanks to one of my brother in laws, my Dad and I had great seats in the family box.
As I hadn't been in many years it was great fun, and a bit of a trip getting to see friends from long ago.
The younger generation is continuing this annual family tradition, which is a good thing. What a great bunch of kids and grandkids.
I have some terrific memories of the old Roundups. It has changed a lot over the years, Dad and I both liked the old version better, possibly because we were more involved. Spending time with family and friends was and is the best part.
Hoping you'll share some of those memories! I enjoy your writing.
ReplyDeleteany photos? I went to a small town rodeo about 5 years ago and hadn't been to any in decades before that.
ReplyDeleteI have never been to a rodeo. Can you tell us about it?

I guess most families have their traditional annual outings. At one time my sister and brother in law never missed going to the races on Boxing Day and having a flutter.
ReplyDeleteWould love photos and stories. Is a "Roundup rodeo" different from a run of the mill rodeo?
ReplyDeleteStopping by to say hi(-: We didn't get to the Rodeo. Ours is in a couple weeks and hopefully we can go this year! We seem to always be so busy around that time!
ReplyDeleteHope you are having a great week!!!!
I would give an arm and a leg to be able to see one live. I have seen short lengths in movies and have always longed to see one live.
ReplyDeleteSorry all I have been away for a few days. If you go on Ytube and search Red Bluff Round-up you'll see all sorts of rodeo pics. I didn't get any pics myself as I was too busy chatting with family... Have a great weekend!
