Cattle Call At Brawley
Riverfront RV Park Yuma, Arizona Day 19
Morning exercise, walking, and biking complete; we drove about 75 miles to Brawley, California. We were there to see the 65th Brawley Cattle Call, a professional rodeo.
The bullpen.
Bucking Broncos.
Barrel Racing.
Mutton Bustin…for children 5-8 and weighing less than 60 pounds. The kids actually rode on the sheep, trying to stay on as long as possible. The winner was a seven-year-old. He clung to that sheep for a long time!
The clowns were irreverent and hilarious.
Bull riding.
The patriotism, the pageantry, the danger, the thrill, the power of the animals, the athletic competitors, the skills and animal handling…this was a real western experience and we both enjoyed the day.
We got back to Yuma after dark and decided to have dinner at Prison Hill. It was a nice evening to be outside and the food was terrific. We ended our day with a downtown walk.
Anita, As you sit at the table waiting for meal you look ,, well, just very happy. My hat off to the both of you.
