My World Of Hopes, Dreams, Fantasies

Day 16 Camping-Rodeo

Prompt: We are leaving the lodge tomorrow morning. We will be watching a rodeo.

Have you ever seen a rodeo? Who gets the worse deal, the rider or horses in your opinion?

Have you ever imagined what a blade of glass feel like on a hot day? What kind of things would be the grass be thinking about and why? What if torrential rain started. How would the grass feel and why?

We will be viewing wildlife today. We have to stay 25 yards away from bison or elk and 100 yards away from bears.

I saw Loretta Lynn's Rodeo years ago in Nashville, Tennessee. Meeting Loretta Lynn was great. She has the warmest eyes, smile and I got her autograph and she loves her fans. My mother, grandmother and I saw her shopping the next day at Penneys with her daughters.

The Rodeo. I always cheer for the bulls to win. Who gets the worse deal? The cowboy asks for it. You shouldn't get a bull stirred up. I don't want anyone to get hurt. A bull can be friendly. Cowboys? They are taking their chances. I knew a man who was a Rodeo Cowboy and he had broken so many bones that he finally quit and became a bridge builder.

I would imagine a blade of grass would wish for water on a hot day. I would. As for heavy rains, they would hate to be drowned. I know I would. Grass would feel happy when it started to grow more grass.

I admired the bison and elk from afar. I had a friend once pet a bison. She said he just kept eating his grass.

Until tomorrow.
