Ranching And Mining Festival in Peeples Valley AZ




Tommy, Megan and Sara found something to
keep them occupied until time to sing.






Tommy on the zip line...


Sara's turn...


And here comes Megan.


Band scramble...
Musicians put there name in a bucket for whatever
instrument they want to play... Their name is drawn
and they create a band with those names. They have
one hour to practice three songs and come
back to be judged.

Here is Philip in his band...




Philip and Jake Workman.

Philip's band took 4th place.






Jacob with his band...




Jacob's band took 3rd place.



The guys... Colin, Jacob and Philip
finding some play time.


Tommy getting his horse ready
for the rodeo.

Tommy racing his horse against another...
He let this young man win. I told him
he is way too generous and when you're in
a race... You race to WIN!

Here he is in the bucking bronco competition...
He took first place... Wah Hoo!!!
Barrel racing... Again, first place.
He's becoming quite the cowboy.
Too bad he's a city slicker.

On stage.



I was going to take videos and put some clips up
for everyone to hear... But the wind was blowing so much
I was afraid all you would here was wind.
It was a fun time. We had some good singing moments
and some... Well... Not so good singing moments.
But it was a great get-away from the city life.
Now it's back to business...

  3. We had some fun times and some NOT so fun times. It was nice to get out of the city though. Our first trip in Goldie. It was nice. The motel was another story... But we had a good time.
