Passing of Booger Barter

I never met Booger Barter but know I would have liked him.  I have seen several interviews with this team roping and barrel race producer and he seemed such a sweet and genuine man.  Since his passing I have read many discussion boards and facebook entries and he was truly a loved man by many people. My family and I always dreamed of attending one of his Barrelnanza races to have a chance at a truck. Details are very few about the circumstances of his death.  Prayers to his family and friends.

Ready for some more NFR action!

It has been a great weekend for those who love barrel racing.  Not only has the NFR kicked off but the Champion of Champions race in Ardmore was webcast.  Hats off to Matt and Bendi Dunn and their great horse Mulberry Canyon Moon who won the Open Champion of Champions race for the 3rd year in a row.  I am a little bias toward this horse because our weanling's sire is a half brother to her.  My favorite trainer, Latricia Duke, cleaned house in the $100,000 race winning first and second place.  This lady is a genius with a horse.

I am off to watch the action in the third round of the NFR!

Sick.....

I have really neglected the blog for the past few days.  Reese has been sick all week long.  Just when I think she is about to rebound from it she takes a turn for the worse.  It is a cold and what I thought was a stomach virus.  But last night she started with a fever so we are off to the doctor for a professional opinion.

In my absence if you are a reader...and yes there are a few of you (THANKS!)...I want to recommend you jump over and read one of my most fav blogs http://www.thesouthdakotacowgirl.com/.  Enjoy and hopefully I will be back tomorrow with better news on Reese and time to actually blog something worth reading!
