Sounds like fun. And it definitely looks "Texas-sized". When is the actual contest?

If I ever get kicked out of Washington State it's nice to know I'll fit right in in Texas!

Yeee Haaaa!!! (as we used to say in West Texas) She's Back! Glad to see you posting again. I figure you have been pretty busy and I hope it's been with real estate! I am still a fan of Rodeos having grown up watching them since I was a child! Excellent post and your pictures are great too!

Oh and I also meant to say I am an even bigger fan of BBQ! Those are incredible BBQ Rigs! And they even have some "saucy" little assistants!

In addition to all the fun, there are so many young people who benefit.  Thanks to the thousands of volunteers who make this possible.

Hi Pippa, your picture posts are still the most interesting on AR :) Great to have you back after your break. Looking forward to learning more about your neck of the woods.

btw: you still have the nicest profile banner for century 21. We even gave you a Golden Castelllum for it. Not sure if you saw :(

Sincerely, Castellum
