Happy Rodeo Day to everyone.
Should be a great event for everyone who was lucky enough to have tickets. The Saturday.event is sold out for the rodeo itself. The carnival has tickets available. Sunday there is still a few tickets available the last time I checked.

Kind of makes me a tad nostalgic seeing those lights. Reminds me of the yearly carnival we used to have in Ridgecrest back in the 60s. 5$ made the entire weekend magical . Damn I'm feeling ancient
