A recent visit to Stephenville, TX made me realize how much I have roping fever... We didn't attend a roping when we were there - but we saw a lot of the "old crew"... Okay, Kain Garcia & Steve Warnock constitute old crew, haha. Let me have my moment! Anyhow, we always had the best adventures with Steve when we all lived in Pendleton -- I remembered I had this picture of us with Steve during our First EVER roping. Of course, I don't mean my Dad's "Rockin'Spade Ropings" I am talking about my first roping produced by just John and I... It was called "The Turkey Roping". Simple enough - the winners won turkeys and fleece jackets... The roping was the weekend before Thanksgiving. I remember Steve saying, "A turkey? What am I going to do with a turkey?" haha!
I loved visiting Stephenville... It was sort of like a Northwest Reunion since Kain Garcia, Steve Warnock and Brett McDowell all live there. Makes home feel not quite so far away! But it also made me wish we were back home on an alkali arena, roping a few corriente steers :)
