The Professional Bull Riders Association moved its headquarters to my town and then threw a four-day party dubbed the Wild Wild Wild West Fest to celebrate the relocation. Since Thursday, there’s been non-stop activity down on Union Ave: pancake breakfasts, a mercado, an exhibit of western boots, a parade, outdoor concerts, vendors galore and bullriding by the primo cowboys in the world.
Deciding what to wear to the party in their honor was an easy choice – this Colorado Centennial apron and my embroidered cowgirl boots! Too wonderful.
Before the final competition, we walked around and came upon this very long, long horned steer, and for $10.00, you could sit in the saddle and get your picture taken. As I contemplated whether I really wanted to climb up the step stool and wearing a skirt, hoist myself atop Oliver, he pooped.
Oliver appeared quite content to have someone clean up after him, not unlike most men, I think.
Had there not been the delay, I would have clamored into the saddle and had my picture taken. In hindsight, Oliver did me a heck of favor.

Tie One On…an apron, of course!
HAHA! There you go! I admit I would have loved seeing the picture! LOVE the apron! My boots are just plain old red ropers…wow am I jealous? Those are some very spiffy boots!
Sounds like a wild and WONDERFUL weekend!
I’m gonna giggle on that one! He pooped. Priceless!
And a bull named Oliver? That’s not a very bullish name is it?
Love those boots and your apron too!
The apron and boots is a great combo! Love it. And I think you should have done the picture with ole Olie. I guess I would have! But then again I have horses too.
hahaha! well at least the guy was well versed in “Poop Scooping 101”
lololololing!
Luv the Apron & Luv the boots! I am down to 5 pair as one of my pairs is not long for this world.
Hmmm I see a bird house out of one & a vase outta the other in the near future!
Soooo, were you able to get one of those Bull Riders to pose in an apron?????? If anyone can talk a guy into wearing an apron, it would be you! lol!
>^..^<
I can not believe the horns I’m seeing on that bull, I never saw any that big in diameter before.
To bad he interupted your moment. It would have made a cute picture!
THat’s just crazy! loOk at the size of those horns!!!! I’ve never seen that before!
THAT is SOOO funny! Yuk! Oh well, such is the life of being a buckaroo. And what a name for a bull. I will never think of Oliver as a dignified man from England ever again!
