Sharon and I were invited by Karen Brookman to spend a few days at the Calgary Stampede with her and her family and friends. Needless to say, it was a blast. George, Karen’s father, is president and CEO of the Stampede in 2008 and we were given the red carpet treatment. We had great seats, foods and lots and lots of fun. I’ve started posting a number of galleries with more to come. All the galleries can be found here if you want to explore by yourself. If you want full sized images, please let me know the image name.
Clicking on the picture will take you to the gallery unless otherwise noted.
After watching the parade from our VIP seats, we went off to Stampede Headquarters to rest up for lunch:
The rodeo was incredible to watch live. Hats off to the cowboys that do this for a living. Their jobs give a whole new definition to the term pain. If you think you are having a bad day, keep this picture in mind. The entire gallery (its large to show maximum pain) can be found here
A visit to the Stampede wouldn’t be complete with a bit of partying, drinking and then taking pictures. We didn’t get too out of hand, and the gallery can be found here.
More pictures to come over the next few days.
