This week had a bunch of activity packed into it. Locally, Canon City and Florence have weekly music in the park. Wonderful that it cools down into the 70’s or low 80’s by 7pm and you can actually enjoy setting out in the park and listen to various music programs.
On Tuesday we caught the Canon City music and it was pretty good… Done by Indigo Way. We also had Grandson #3 spending a few days with us here and he likes the park. I am not sure he likes all the music but he liked this group. Although he likes the music he gets fired up playing a “run around something” game. At first it is run around our chairs then it might be…
run behind the tree so Daddy has to chase me… ha!
Later that night we had to stop and pick up some things that seemed to be missing from GS#3’s normal supplies in his bag…
Headed to the music…
Unique way to repair a fender.
We did the same thing again Wednesday night at the Florence music but it was not as much fun for us, same fun for GS#3… different music and after the Tuesday night show we were a bit spoiled…
Friday night I made it to the Ranch Rodeo that was kicking off the County Fair week here… I had been to a lot of rodeo’s but since I was never on, associated or in a big ranch area I had not attended a “Ranch Rodeo” which by all accounts is more like what it used to be when the local ranches would gather and compete against each other in “regular” ranch activities… interesting…
The had 10 teams out here and a lot of shifting team members for some… and they competed this time in 4 needs as an event… see link above… The thing I was not prepared for was the auction at the start to price in the teams. that took too long and my butt got tired but I did stay for about half the teams to run. Lots of roping, and several ladies were on the teams.
Before and during the events this guy was selling kids balloons…
The back of his britches said “uncle ed”… ?
This morning I made a run to check out another fishing spot and saw an odd set of ?wild ? turkeys..
I think there was mixing up with the locals here and one got a little …. white?
Tonight I took in another interesting items. Saturday nights the local “coyote den café” has music and entertainment… Tonight’s fare was Cowboy poetry and music… Strange that my weekly or periodic Facebook notice, which recently had a feature poem by Susie Knight…
It was a very good show. although there always people that show up and persist in talking loud enough that you have a hard time hearing the entertainment. wonder why they show up that these things if they want to visit, go somewhere else. Oh well someone else did get on to a couple of them but don’t expect they will refrain the next time they show up.
Not sure what tomorrow brings. But I will be thankful when I see the sun.
