Alberta High School Rodeo - Lucy & Carly

Have I mentioned how much Austin loves high school rodeo season? The girls all like it too. 
Lucy and Carly had some good rodeo runs and some not so good rodeo runs. 
There were still some covid restrictions, but not as bad as in the spring. We just had to wear masks when we were watching indoor rodeos.















Lucy and Carly both did well in goat tying, but not as successful this season in breakaway. Carly also did place in poles a few times. 

Austin had an idea for Lucy to compete in barrel racing by borrowing Traci Aipperspach's horse, Cover Girl. Traci was nice enough to haul her in a couple times and help Lucy practice. The first rodeo was pretty good. Then the next two Lucy had a little trouble at the first barrel. Then she started to get the hang of it. Her last run on Cover Girl she ran a 14.3 at the Cardston High School Rodeo, her best time ever. She was so happy/proud/sad that it was her last run on that horse - a few tears came.
