I was having a little trouble with the altitude (breathing problem) and decided not to go. Here are some of their pictures.

The Behind the Chutes Tour:

The Native American Dancers:

For lunch they had a real Buffalo Burger. (Notice the shape):

The Rodeo:

Trick riding:

Wow! The horses jumped over the car while he was standing on their backs.

Vera got a picture of a fun loving New York Cowboy enjoying the Rodeo:

And finally the rain they missed on the way back to the campground:

Even though the temperature was in the upper 90’s, they managed to have a very entertaining day.
