Last week was the Medicine Hat Spring Rodeo, so we went along to see what it was all about. There was bucking bronco riding, steer roping and bull riding - all of which looked quite painful (for the riders and the animals!). Horses and cattle are a way of life here, and this is the start of the competitive rodeo season which builds up to the Calgary Stampede in the summer.

ReplyDeleteKevin, surely you took part? All Army officers should be able to ride. (Or am I thinking of Victorian times?)
I think things have changed a bit since Harry Flashman's time!
