to the San Antonio Rodeo Friday night.
Big Mike D, far right, sizing up the competition...waiting in line to board his sheep....

here he is on board...and hanging on for dear life...

a 3 second ride...soon to be interrupted by the law of gravity.

with a little help from Leon Coffee, he was up and...
running like the wind to get the heck outta dodge...
running like the wind to get the heck outta dodge...
The Cowboy rides away....taking with him
the Mother of all trophies..."Mutton Bustin', where Little League meets the Rodeo..
Where grit, courage and perseverance are learned...
Much like our lives...Where grit, courage and perseverance are learned...
Some days you ride the sheep....some days the sheep, which is three times your size, rides you and all you can do is hang on for dear life.

You catch the ground with your face...
and you need a big God, to come along and wipe it all off.
God, Thank You for your constant watch and patience...it must be like herding cats...or dumb sheep...and yet, You never turn away.

Super Bowl Sunday.....










On August 29, 2005, at about 9:00 am, reports from inside the Superdome were that part of the roof was "peeling off," daylight could be seen from inside the dome, and rain was pouring in.
As of August 31, there had been three deaths in the Superdome: two elderly medical patients and a man who is believed to have committed suicide by jumping from the upper level seats. There were also unconfirmed reports of rape, vandalism, violent assaults, crack dealing/drug abuse, and gang activity inside the Superdome.

Holes that had been punched through drywall by evacuees who broke into luxury suites just to look for any type of food or water....were nowhere to be seen.
How pleased he must have been to see
