My latest article in The Fence Post magazine is about the recent Elizabeth Stampede Rodeo and their hard work in putting on a pair of rodeo performances on Saturday alone.  For a town with a population of just 1,400, it is an amazing feat to see them host about 5,000 people in the stands and on the grounds over those two Saturday performances.

Colorado barrel racer Shali Lord explodes into the third barrel on her way to a 16.14-second time on Sunday afternoon’s round of rodeo action at the 2019 Elizabeth Stampede Rodeo in Elizabeth, CO. Lord’s time was just .01 seconds behind Amy Jo Reisdorfer’s and Brittany Pozzi-Tonozzi’s winning time of 16.13 seconds.
A pair of rodeos keeps organizers and volunteers busy on Saturday

A LOT more photos should be in the print edition coming out this coming Monday (June 24, 2019).

History Alive and Well in American Forts

My wife and I enjoy history, especially when it is alive and well.  Visiting old American frontier forts in Colorado (Bents Old Fort) and Wyoming (Fort Laramie, Fort Casper) is a real treat, but one of our very favorites is the historic Fort Mackinac located on Mackinac Island between the upper and lower peninsulas of Michigan.  The location is amazing and has such an authentic feel to it, since the island does not allow motorized transportation and keeps its Victorian atmosphere fresh and energetic.  Visiting this fort that saw action during the War of 1812 with the British was great fun for us.  If you ever get a chance to visit beautiful Mackinac Island, take it.  You won’t be sorry.

Have a great day and don’t let your horse come home without ya!

You know – I am thankful.  It might sound trite, old fashioned, passe’, smarmy or… whatever.

I don’t care.  I’m still thankful.  I thank God for the many blessings in my life.  I have the blessings of a home, a loving wife, family members that care, a few incredible friends, food on the table and the ability and opportunity to create art and write for a living.

How can I NOT be thankful?

Have a great Thanksgiving holiday and don’t let your horse come home without ya!
