Riggin's Rodeo

May 6 -- 8:

It was another successfull Riggin's Rodeo weekend!  On Friday, Kristen, Stephanie, and I packed up and left Boise around two o'clock.  We had heard that there was construction around Banks, so we decided to go through Weiser to get there.  It was such a prettier drive but made for an interesting trip and a fun story.  We stopped at a cute diner in Indian Lakes and I had a delicious strawberry shake.  And then, shortely afterr getting on the road again, I got pulled over for speeding!  The officier was very friendly and lucky just have me a warning, he was even willing to pose for this picture!

We made it to our annual motel, The Big Iron, and relaxed until the other girls arrived.  Nikki had the wonderful idea of getting us a new weed sprayer that we turned into "Cox and Coffey" are liquor dispenser for the rodeo.  Our neighbors tried to help us put it together, but in the end Karen and Stephanie figured it out, it was pretty hilarious! 

We finally made it "downtown" and were very sad when we saw that one of the three bars was closed down.  Our night was full of hanging out, drinking, dancing, and having fun!  Kristen, Lacy and I were troppers and ended up closing down the bars and then had an eating party in the bathroom!

On Saturday, the only one really hurting from the night before was Karen, but eventually we all got ready and took our annual truck picutre before heading to the rodeo.  We made a quick pit stop at the grocery store to fill up our weed sprayer and then finally made it to the rodeo.  The day ended up being beautiful and packed with "what happens in Riggins, stays in Riggins" stories!
