Uphill Batttle this 4th of July 2011 Run
Sometimes it doesn’t seem to matter what you do… Murphy’s law will kick in.. I had to turn a couple good ones out due to a groin injury, glad that’s over… feelin good again now!
This first week in July was a hctic week, where the good ones were a little off and Justin and I both drew some colts that we couldn’t even get out on!
Then we got up in a plane that circled the mountain between Red Lodge & Livingston MT. After running into storm clouds we had to turn back a 700 plane ride that didn’t go anywhere.
Hahaha!!!
All in all it was a rough week with not much profits, Justin made the Short round at Greeley and had some success, I placed at Oakley & Red Lodge!!
Best thing about rodeo is I’ve got another one tonight!!
Y’all be blessed and talk to ya soon!
