Yee-haw!
Summer is here, and that means so is the Rodeo. The Reno Rodeo is an annual event that spans over the course of a week. The Rodeo ends on Saturday and it's Thursday evening. And...I'm going country!
I've lived in Reno almost my whole life. And I have to say, I've probably only been to the Reno Rodeo half a dozen times or so. And I think the majority of those times have been with some kind of summer-camp or for work.
Tonight, I'm actually going to the land of cowboys by choice. What a change! But really, what do I have to lose? When I'm with good friends, and a flask of whisky hidden in my purse, how can I possibly go wrong?
I have my on my dark jeans, a cute strapless shirt (it's hot as hell today), and my pink-sparkly revolver necklace. I'm ready for some RODEO!!!
UPDATE:
Dare I say? I had a blast!!! It was a beautiful night in Reno. The warm desert air mixed with a nice summer breeze made for a perfect evening. As the sun set over the mountains, I sipped my margarita and watched some cowboys ride some bucking-broncos.
And while I don't see this city slicker going country anytime soon, I have truly learned to appreciate the "country life". As I looked at cowboy hats last night, I realized the rodeo wasn't that bad at all. And as I blasted some Taylor Swift this morning as I was getting dressed, I realized that I will DEF be going back to the rodeo next year. Ride 'em cowgirl!
