I've been many miles this week. I feel like I've been rode hard and put up wet, tired, can't sleep and get simple minded after weeks like this
Should have saved my summer wages

This song reminds me of back in the day
This is the last buckle I won, just happens to be the same year I married my wife, coincidence ?
Those were some good times, to be young again
Dang photobucket, I've rotated the pic every direction and can't get it right side up

I was in Artesia NM at a bull riding and drew a big ol'bull they called slam dunk.
He blew out the chute and got me set back on my pockets and bellied rolled then torqued'er back in to my hand.
Then like his namesake slam dunked me on my head, it kind of scattered my chickens, but I heard the bull fighter hollering get up !!!
I jumped up and ran, but I couldn't see at first then when my vision returned I was running towards the bull instead of the fence.
Later that night a kid I knew got stepped on and broke his femur and he was in serious pain and it kind of shook us all up.
I had settled down steady with my girlfriend(wife now) and had a little money and had a few head of steers and was trading cows and bull riding lost it's appeal.
Atfer awhile I wasn't serious about it, I would show up and pay my money and promptly get thrown in the dirt. so I got tired off throwing money away

Edit
Honestly I got skeered, not of riding, but of getting crippled

My luck ran out and I knew it. It was time to go.
For years I wouldn't even go to watch a rodeo. It was like trying to break a very strong addiction.
