More rodeo, of course...

Delaney and I decided to take in the Puyallup Fair and Rodeo. Brittany and Adelyn walked around the fair, while Dee and I took our press passes behind the chutes. That little 9 year old owned the behind the scenes of the rodeo.
Checking out the steers for the bulldogging and team roping. Speaking of team roping, Ellensburg's Minor brothers, Brady and Riley, won about $7,100 here, sealing up yet another bid to the National Finals Rodeo. Personally, I think it was due to the good luck Delaney brought to the table.

Climbing the fence to get a better view.
Family favorite Taylor Jacob. This barrel racer from Texas reset the arena record at the NFR last year in Vegas and almost did it again two nights later. She didn't have too much luck in Ellensburg this year, but we'll see her again.

Quarterly update from KTown

Spring sports with Delaney playing volleyball for the second straight year. This year was noticeably different as her league included fifth through eighth graders. Adelyn with her second year of softball. Again, a noticeably different level of competition. Delaney will eat anything, just like me. Food is fun, especially when you try new things. We're at the Crab Pot along the Seattle waterfront and we got a seafeast of salmon, crab, clams, mussels, shrimp, sausage and corn. It was deee-lish.
