A memory….

I heeled too. I have a saddle out in the garage that I won in 1990. I only rode it once. Too small of a seat it is uncomfortable for me to ride. Some of the worse roping of my life the day I won the saddle. A 3 steer jackpot. I won first and second because I was in the only 2 teams to rope all three. I have a friend who won the all around at the Calgary Stampede. I told him that I was embarrassed to win the saddle. He told me don't be embarrassed, you were better than everyone else that day. I was 52 on 3 and 61 on three. I have sure roped better but I remember those awful times. I haven't been in the saddle for over 10 years now.
This picture is of me on a bareback bronc fourth of July 1974. I placed 3rd or 4th that day. I lost most of my rodeo pictures in a house fire in 1984. This is one of the few that happened to be at my parents house.

That's a nice image. It could make a painting with some imagination.
