March Nevada Bandits

 March brought with it some beautiful weather and some stormy weather.  Thankfully the Lord gave us a beautiful day for the second Nevada Bandit show.

  Being a camera person and also competing has limited the number of pics that I have taken so far-its hard to juggle a camera and ride but hopefully I will get some 'action' ones here soon!

   Decided to try and 'tame' the mane on Riata!  She rubbed about half of it out last year trying to get to 'tasty morsels' on the other side of the fence.  When it grew back in, it layed to the other side of her neck so I'm trying to get it back all to one side..........as of today, I've made a little progress.

 Nina patiently waiting.

   Waylon came along for the day and so did Hank but he is almost impossible to get a picture of because when you have the camera out, he won't sit still-he wants to catch the 'flash'-he's crazy like that!  Waylon on the other hand, will gladly sit for a picture even when the sun is in his eyes.  He's happy to have ALL the attention and being that he is getting lots of it this day and he got to go on a truck ride and even has his pillow with him in the truck that he got to ride in, he's one happy dog!!

 Turn you head sideways...............Nina sporting her headstall that they won last year!

 Break time at the trailer.

  I think she is thinking what I was thinking..............getting up early makes for a long day.

   Are we done yet?  Why am I going around poles and barrels instead of chasing cattle? There are cattle in the pens back there didn't you notice?

  All in all, it turned out to be once again another great day of racing and visiting with friends!!  Next show is this coming weekend-hopefully I will have some action shots  ;)
