It’s been a week or so, yeah… but I couldn’t help but make a quick video of the Stock Show.
FAIR WARNING: I did time lapse while going over the Big Horn Mountains while Vernon was driving. It results in a pretty radical viewpoint… so if you’re susceptible to car sickness, maybe this video isn’t for you!
I also threw in a clip from the Extreme Bulls event with “local” cowboy Hawk Whitt from Thermopolis. Hey, why not help promote the Local Guys?
The trip was fun, short, and a welcome break from ranchlife. Well, maybe not *from* ranchlife… all we did was look at “ranch stuff”… Vernon did comment that it was nice to park in a parking lot where all of the other vehicles were covered in mud and hay schmutz on the flatbeds and the extra accoutrements known and carried by ranchers across this nation!
The only thing I found them to be lacking in at this event was a MAP. With ten bazillion booths I couldn’t find my way around and I’m pretty dog gone good with directions! I know you can’t list them all, but I had no chance at refinding a specific booth! Country girl in the city, I guess.
Enjoy our mini vacation!
Great video!
Help please! Vernon was driving too fast for me to read the highway signs! What hwy’s were you traveling? I’d like to drive that route-
Highway 16 over the Big Horn Mountains, then Interstate 90 from Buffalo to Rapid City.
Awesome video. Thanks.
Bull riding always amazes me — those things are HUGE!!!
Beautiful! You even managed to get our neck of the woods in your video, Beulah! Loved the music!
Great music to this winter ride! Sounds Celtic??
I hope the cowboy won in the bull riding!
That was a wonderful video. I’d love to drive it again someday. And the music you chose is perfect! Did I understand the rodeo announcer to say Hawk is ranked #8 in the world? Did he win?
He did not place that night… they only listed the top four… But this went on for many nights.
Many thanks for the road trip! I travel alone so it was nice to be able to look around from the “shot gun” seat! I like bull riding, but I always cheer for the bull!!
