Our friends, the Wrights, participate in Cowboy Mounted Shooting. Sounds very dirty, but is basically, riding a horse while shooting balloons. You may think this sounds easy, but not so much. You have to ride fast while accurately shooting blanks at balloons. You ride a different pattern each time, and the dress is old time attire: chaps, flowy pants (not the technical name, I'm sure), spurs, hats, etc. This past weekend, we watched and I kept Rocky(the horse) busy while the three of them concentrated on their runs.

Dawn and I "shooting" the shit while she waits to shoot. Get it? hee hee........gimme a break, it's late, I'm tired.
Mark putting the brakes on Buck. Yikes!
Abby kicking ass and taking names. She placed second this weekend.
