A new photo spread of mine has been published in The Fence Post magazine. You can see 19 of my photos from the 2022 Mountain States Circuit Finals rodeo in Loveland, CO (Oct. 21-22) on The Fence Post’s website. Just follow the link or click on the image below. There was some good drama there, this year, including the barrel racing title being decided by .01-seconds, a permit holder winning the bareback title, and a bull rider overcoming injury to win it all. https://www.thefencepost.com/news/2022-mountain-states-circuit-finals-rodeo/

Lamar, CO barrel racer Shali Lord and her 2010 mare Frosted In Fame (“CeCe”) dig around around the third barrel on their way to a quick 15.28-second time during Saturday night’s final round of action at the 2022 Mountain States Circuit Finals in Loveland, CO. The time helped Lord earn the average title by just .01-seconds over Brittany Pozzi Tonozzi and secure an invitation to the million dollar 2023 NFR Open in Colorado Springs.

I hope you enjoy the photos from the rodeo. Thanks for stopping by!

I had a photo spread of mine published on The Fence Post magazine’s website. It will also be in this coming week’s print edition. TWENTY photos from the 2022 record breaking and award winning Elizabeth Stampede Rodeo! Click on the link or the image to go to the published photo spread!

The Friday night Extreme Bulls competition at the Elizabeth Stampede sells out well in advance every year, because the fans are always treated to well-known bull riders and athletic beasts with bad attitudes.

Queens Aren’t Just in England…

Some of the most popular people at a rodeo are the rodeo queens. They work hard inside and outside the arenas throughout every rodeo and they do a great job of being ambassadors of the sport to younger generations, as well as adults who aren’t familiar with rodeo and the western/agricultural way of life. I had the opportunity to have a conversation with 2022 Miss Rodeo Colorado Ashley Baller during a break between the Saturday afternoon and Saturday night rodeos at the 2022 Elizabeth Stampede in Elizabeth, CO. I will be turning it into a Q&A that will be published soon in The Fence Post magazine, but wanted to give a shout out to all the rodeo queens that will be working hard during the busy summer rodeo season.

2022 Miss Rodeo Colorado, Ashley Baller, carried the Colorado state flag in front of a sell-out crowd before the start of Sunday afternoon’s Red, White and Blue Rodeo at the 2022 Elizabeth Stampede (June 05).

My article with photos regarding the CSU Spur campus construction occurring as part of the massive National Western Center expansion and renovation in Denver, CO is published online on the website of The Fence Post magazine, and should be out in this upcoming Monday’s print edition.

You can find it here: https://www.thefencepost.com/news/csu-aims-to-spur-ag-for-all-of-colorado/

In a September 2021 photo taken from the roof of CSU Spur’s Terra building, the view takes in the nearly completed Vida building in the foreground that is scheduled to be open and ready for tours during the upcoming January 2022 National Western Stock Show. To the left of the photo is a corner of the Hydro building that is under construction and will be finished later in 2022.

CSU Spur Construction

I have an article submitted that should be published soon about the construction on the three buildings comprising the CSU Spur campus located on the grounds of the National Western Center in Denver, CO. One is the Hydro building, which will be focused on water education, research, and issues.

An exterior shot of CSU Spur’s Hydro building under construction in September 2021. According to CSU Spur spokespeople, the Hydro building has connectivity down to the river and lots of flexible programming spaces. On the right side of the building is the start of what will be a signature circular staircase that is symbolic of a river eddy.

Another building is the Terra building, which will be focused on education, research, and issues regarding land and agriculture.

Amid the ongoing noise and activity of heavy machinery and construction, CSU Spur Director of Education Kathryn Venzor (foreground, left) describes the construction progress and purposes of the campus to a group touring the site. The building under construction in the background is the exterior of the Terra building, which will focus on land and agriculture.

The third building is the CSU Spur Vida building, which will be focused on human and animal health. Vida should be complete and ready to tour by the time the upcoming National Western Stock Show arrives in January of 2022. But that image will be a separate blog post in the future!

I have a new story with photos published about the Colorado Agricultural Leadership Foundation’s (CALF) Legend of Agriculture Dinner and fundraiser that took place at the beginning of October. Great organization and great mission.

The story and photos are on The Fence Post magazine’s website, as well as in their upcoming print edition.

Speeches and presentations were made while food was served up during the 2021 CALF Legend of Agriculture Dinner honoring Tim Lowell on Friday October 01,2021.  The food consisted of samples of CALF raised pork, along with desserts for the nearly 200 attendees of the dinner and auction fundraiser for the Castle Rock, CO agricultural organization.  Between the dinner, the auction, and a matching donation, over $100,000 was raised to support CALF's mission.

My Name on a Building!

Okay – maybe my name won’t be front and center…

I was blessed to be able to schedule another editorial photography and interview appointment yesterday (September 10, 2021) in order to do a second story on the massive construction project on the grounds of the National Western Stock Show.

Lincoln Rogers after signing a beam at the CSU Spur construction site – September 10, 2021. Didn’t realize I was rocking the hard hat at such a jaunty angle until after the pic. 🙂

This story will focus on Colorado State University’s (CSU) presence and partnership on the site and its agricultural implications for the state of Colorado. But I also got to sign one of the construction beams that will be placed near the top of CSU’s “Hydro” building, which should be completed sometime in 2022. So I guess my name will be IN the building, rather than on it.

Pretty cool bonus after the tour, though! Now the Hydro building will always produce a smile whenever I see it in the future as that is as close as I will ever get to having my name on a building.

Record Setting Brothers!

One of the great things about county fairs are all the young people raising and showing animals. Raising and showing animal projects teaches and imparts respect, accountability, work ethic, and yes… humility (farm animals will always end up teaching everyone humility at one time or another).

A pair of brothers at the 2021 Douglas County Fair in Castle Rock, CO learned all those lessons and more. Job Knight (15-years-old) and Silas McQuate (9-years-old) also learned how to be respectful and gracious while sweeping the top Market Beef Steer awards at the fair and setting auction records in the fair’s 2021 Junior Livestock Sale.

I was able to get a chance to talk with Job and Silas, along with their parents Seth and Jenn, on the last day of the Douglas County Fair. You can find my article and photos about their accomplishments on The Fence Post magazine’s website: https://www.thefencepost.com/news/oh-brothers/

Big brother Job Knight and Diesel (left), along with younger brother Silas McQuate and Superman (right), made a family clean sweep of the Grand Champion Market Beef Steer and Reserve Grand Champion Market Beef Steer at the 2021 Douglas County Fair in Castle Rock, CO. On top of those awards, Job picked up the Reserve Sr. Showmanship award and Silas won the Jr. Showmanship Champion buckle. As if that wasn’t enough, the Larkspur, CO brothers both set auction records for the winning bids on their Maine Angus cross steers in Douglas County Fair’s 2021 Junior Livestock Sale.
Happy Flag Day fellow Americans!

County Fair Cuisine!!!

Admit it. You don’t go to a County Fair to eat healthy. But I was wondering…

Is there such a thing as a County Fair WITHOUT a grill serving up huge Turkey Legs?

A pile of turkey legs cooking up on a grill at the Douglas County Fair & Rodeo in Castle Rock, CO.

Can’t think of one? I didn’t think so!

Happy Flag Day fellow Americans!
