Bovine & Equine

We had a nice little adventure the first weekend in February. We drove out to Klamath Falls, OR and enjoyed ourselves at the Klamath Bull and Horse Sale!

The kids liked watching the children's events and ALL wanted to learn to rope, too! So, when we were looking at the various vendor booths, they were so excited (and surprised) that Pops said "YES!" to getting kid sized ropes! We didn't get far before we sat down and they were roping our feet, posts and the wind - just trying to get the feel of tossing the rope.

Next up: Bull Auction! A lot of big bulls for a lot of money! WOW - who'da thunk it! THOUSANDS of dollars for each bull.

A bit of fun to watch all the bulls be pushed through the shoots and to listen to the auctioneers.

Klamath Falls is also a military base town... and while we were outside, we saw lots of aircraft flying over and over and over.

Everyone enjoyed the flybys - EVERYONE!

And about one minute later, we were exhausted.

We had fun and enjoyed our stay... Off to go take care of more stuff around the house! Gotta make room for our new bull and horses! Just kidding - well, sort of!

PS - sorry about these fuzzy pictures... that darn pocket camera!
