November sounds great for me too.  Hey, Deedoe see if CitygoneCountry can come out and play?  I guess, Stacie will be in her new home, which is a shame.  I would love to see Miss Vicki again, I keep meaning to tell her that my horses loved the treats and the beautiful pink bucket is used daily for just feeding, Bijou. My Diva.

Vicki--i wanted to mention that we are gearing up in November for the 2nd Annual Benefit for Ben. :) that might fit your calendar too. I'm looking at a friday night meet n greet, saturday one day clinic, and sunday I will put on a jackpot with some added $$$$   :). Talked to Tamet today, and this is going to be great. ;)
     


   i'll be there,just hope you don't make it thanksgiving weekend,I'M GOING TO ORLANDO TO SEE MY BABY,
    this sounds like a winner AGAIN

Okay when will we find out the dates for the rest of the mini clinics? Since I know my schedule for the rest of the year I wanted to see if any will be on my weekends off...
The best of horses rise to the challenges we set before them,asking very little in return.

So far....

I have Ride At The Ranch dates picked as:

Sept 19th...which is Saturday...
October 11th...which is Sunday...
then of course the benefit in November!!

That is just a couple for the next two months... and I will probably add a few more dates but those are firm.  :)

Also....

Guess I get to tell "all" here.  But...I plan on doing things alittle bit different to help accomodate everyone being able to get there
for the clinic in Athens for Ben.

Due to the sheer numbers of folks I taught last year (I think we had 32!!!)....if we get into these numbers again because NO ONE
will be turned away for this clinic if I have to stand there until 3 am...and you know guys...I never leave the arena and I WILL stand
there for hours, if thats what it takes.  But if we get into these numbers....I am probably going to choose to put you into groupings
of  9am-12pm, 12:15-3:15, 3:30-6:30, ect......that way we get in 3 hours of consistant barrel work in one group, 10 per group.  
I will get more into this later, but this way its solid work and then you are free to rest up for the barrel race the next day, and sitting
in your lawn chair listening/visiting or shopping when you get done.

I am putting together a full line up this year.  We will have some guest speakers and I'm hoping we can fill Athens with vendors
who will want to come for some pre Xmas shopping.  We have more time this year to get this going and I'm hoping that each
year you will join us as we attempt to do alittle something special for Ben.  I want to make enough money that he receives his
something that maybe otherwise would not be afforded somehow.  Tamet is a very special friend to me and to all of us here...
and I like to give alittle bit back to them as they give us a great place to go everyday.  :)

BUT...I HAVE TO GET THRU THE RIDE AT THE RANCH DAYS FIRST...HAHAHA...AND START WORKING ON THIS SOON!! :)

LOL!!!!!!!!! Laura, I rode Hollywood last night in preperation for coming to your house!!! Remember I told you he's been off for awhile???? Oh good grief, I thought he was going to kill me!! He wanted so bad to buck! I was laughing at him because he had his head between his legs and was loping almost straight up and down but he wasn't bucking but he sooooo wanted to!! He has bucked my husband off 4 times so I know he can rodeo if he wants to but he was trying to be so good for me. It was very comical, but I thought to myself if I get hurt I can't go to Laura's!!!! OH NO!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol

I don't think he'll ever actually buck me off, he's a VERY one person horse, it has taken me a year to gain his trust but I have it and that's why it was so comical. If that would have been my husband...well let's just say we would have made it 5 buckoffs!!!

Hope I can make it that weekend.  Sounds like it is going to be great.  I have the WBR Finals--I get to ride this year!!!!!!  Yippee!!!!  I am so excited.  I guess when it gets closer I will know.  I won't be able to take off of work for Athens due to the finals.
