Bull Riding, Mini Golf, White Lines, Moon Light, All Night Drives, Rodeo, and everything in between.
Monday night at 11 p.m. we set out on a grand adventure to Reno, Nevada. By the next morning, we were shopping at the legendary D-M store and visiting with Jack Bassett

Pretty sure I need a wooden Indian...just sayin
D-M in Reno, Nevada. What a fun store! |
By 11 am, we were at the JJJ Arena. Tucked away in what seemed almost like crowded suburbs to this small town Idaho girl, was a Bad A little bucking bull arena. I had to snap a few pictures. What a fun afternoon. Thank you so much to the Clark family for welcoming us to their place.

Before the bull riding got kicked off, we took advantage of a little down time. Touring through the amazing rodeo history displayed in the Clark home. An amazing collection of rodeo pictures and memorabilia. Above is a picture of Joe Clark riding a bull. Below is the wickest calf riding picture I've ever seen.

| Rollin on home from Reno! |
Over 24 hours on the road, meeting more fun people than I could count, 2 different stops to get horses, and a few gas station stops in between. Throw in a perf of the Reno Rodeo, storage units, stock trailers, and family....that pretty much sums up Reno Run! 6:30 am Thursday morning back in Idaho and ready to hit the rodeo trail again. Oh summer fun!
Thank you so much for traveling the gypsy trail with me. Happy 4th of July and Merry Cowboy Christmas to everyone on the rodeo trail! ~ Mindy
