chucks ahoy!

i just saw my first chuckwagon races today at the medicine hat stampede grandstands. the 1 o’clock races with the miniature horses were absolutely adorable and at 2, the pro races began and after listening carefully to the explanation of the rules and the roles (okay i was busy asking questions and talking the entire time but eventually caught on) i was quite enthralled with the event and can’t wait until next year. here are just a few of the pictures i took.

Hey Corinne:
I am surprised that you say this is your first wagon race. I guess looks can be deceiving as I would take you as a good old country gal. To see that you have not attended is a bit surprising. None the less I am glad you enjoyed yourself. One question what did you mean by the miniature horse part of your report? Unless you know something I don't they are not miniatures they just run a scaled down track here in Medicine Hat.
Anyway welcome to the cowgirl way of life dear and keep up the great work!!!!

Cheers
