They gave everybody a poster and I took mine to what I thought was the van we drove down there, but the one I put it in had a side pocket on the inside of the door. When we got close to home I looked for my poster and that van had no pocket. There was an SUV parked near by and I think you can add 2 and 2 together on that one. Ha, Ha, I even sat there for a few minutes and rested up. If anybody saw me in there they never said nothing. -- RODEO RAMBLINGS

In reply to: Varmit 's message, "I spent a semester there in the fall of 75.. last time I was through there was about 1987. Guess things probably have changed since then. Back then there was 1 gas station and a cafe on the west side of the road. The practice arena was right across the road on the east side of 54. Roping and bucking chutes on the south side with an extra ropin chute on the northern side, depending on which way the wind blew. Horse barns on western and northern side of arena." on 11:35:11 05/15/06 Mon

Hap, has it changed much since I was there from my description. Hey, who's that guy in my vehicle? (NT) -- Varmit, 06:46:50 05/17/06 Wed
- The town doesn't look like it's changed, but they now have real nice arena that was built by the proceeds of the bronc school. It's on the north end of town on the east side of the highway. The roping chute is on the south end and they have ten bucking chutes at the north end. They have some good timey hands there that got their share of practice picking up bucking horses during the four days. Don't know how many horses were bucked all told, but one kid that went with me got on twelve and I think the other got on ten. Some got on more and some less but ten might be close to average. Thirty two students times ten head is 320 horses, so they could have easily bucked 300. A girl named Kaila from Canada was a student there and did pretty good. She spurred the heck out of one, but also took some thumping like all the rest. She was serious and didn't whine and whimper like some of the boys did. (NT) -- Hap, 13:05:08 05/17/06 Wed
  - There's also a building at the arena that was payed for by the bronc school. It's nice and has indoor plumbing, girls and boys restrooms, nice classroom to review vidios, a room where a guy was selling bronc riding equiptment, and a couple of other rooms that I don't know what they are because they weren't used.
