So after Yellowstone, we headed off to Cody. One of the many things they are known for is for being the Rodeo Capital of the World (or maybe they are not so well known because I bet most of you didn't know that!!)In the months of June, July and August, they have a rodeo every night. It was mucg better than the one we saw last time in OKlahoma. This was more like a show. Andrew thought the rodeo clown was hysterical and they had a scoreboard showing results. One thing that was the same is they had the calf scramble for kids. This time, Andrew didn't want to go (he said he wasn't feeling well) but...Ally went into the arena and did it!! That's right, she is quite the rodeo gal! She didn't grab the calf but she sure looked fast out there and gave it a good try!
There is the cowgirl, ready to go!
And she's running!
She got an official rodeo used lasso afterwards!
The next day, we visited Old Trail Town and this was in the bukding used as a hideout by Butch Cassidy, the Sundance Kid and the Hole in the Wall gang. (Andrew is doing his best to look kike he's ready to rob a bank!)
We found this place down the road a bit....yeah, some of you will be happy, others, not so much (you know who you are!)
Love the pictures. Ally looks like a real cowgirl ready to jump on a horse and rope a calf. Was that really a snake that Andrew was holding? It looks like you are having the best time ever. The scenery is absolutely breathtaking. Miss you guys. Love, Grandma
