Huff N Puff


We just got back from two days at the Huff n Puff Hot Air Balloon festival in Topeka Kansas.....it was absolutely beautiful to see all the different colored hot air balloons.  In total there was about 30 balloons....if you ever get the chance it is every September!  I've heard the one in Albuquerque is really fun it has about 700 balloons.....would love to go see that one someday.  Also got to take a side trip to a fun little stitchery store in Topeka.....The Sunflower Seed....had to purchase a little linen while I was there.

Hope you all had a good weekend!  Linda

Burwell Nebraska Rodeo....yeeha


We made our annual trek to the Burwell Rodeo this weekend.  Only one cowboy had to be hauled away in the ambulance this year.  Here are pictures of my favorite Rodeo event.  The Wild horse race.....a team of five guys (locals who decide I'm sure one night after they have had too much to drink) lets form a team.  What they do is release a wild horse to this team of five guys who try to saddle up the horse and have a rider from the team ride the horse the entire length of the horse track without falling off.  Pretty funny....its usually the event that someone goes to the hospital for.


Well until next year....YEEHA

Let's Tank!







Thought I'd share pictures of my trip to the Burwell Rodeo this weekend. We had a great time - we camped, we rodeo'ed and we tanked! And who says people in the middle of Nebraska don't have anything to do.......the trip down the river took approximately 3 hours but was a blast. I had lots of plan to stitch, read and rug hook this weekend but with all the activities going on...didn't even get it out of the camper.
