Ranch Rodeo

Tonight I was one of the standby EMTs for the ranch rodeo here in Hugo. It's a rodeo where working ranches send their best to do what they do. All the events are based on things done regularly on ranches all over. It was pretty interesting to watch until they got to the bronco riding. You know 8 seconds then the horn signaling they can get of the wild horse. Well, the I got to see the first one and the tail end of the last one. The first on got bucked off then stepped on. So, we jumped into action and did our thing. The poor guy had a hoof print on his right upper quadrant. Not a good place to get stepped on but, where is. So, he will be recovering for a while. I hope he comes out of it all okay, he sure was in a lot of pain. Nobody else got hurt tonight so that was a plus, and now I am off to bed. Newt has T-ball tournaments tomorrow, another busy day. Love and Peace.
