Yesterday we were invited to attend the Medicine Hat Stampede standing in for Commander BATUS. It was an early start with being driven around Medicine Hat in an open top car for the Parade. Then lunch followed by the rodeo.
These are some pictures of us & the car we were in. The sign on the car reads BATUS COMMANDER Major Kevin Bailey & Samantha. So much to Kevins embarrassment he was promoted for the day. It was quite a bizarre experience sitting in the car & waving to everyone, we certainly will never forget it.
These are a couple of pictures of Kevin in our "casual western" dress for the day. With our new hats, shirts and cowboy boots. Everyone is dressed this way so any self consciousness soon disappears & in fact Kevins quite getting into it!
