Springtime Travels!

Spring is well underway which means travel season is upon us here at Prairie Karen. California and Kentucky have been two of my destinations during the past month for the Californios Traditional Ranch Roping and Stock Horse Contest in Red Bluff, CA and the Blue Grass Classic Stock Dog Trials in Lexington KY.

The Californios is a unique competition between authentic working cowboys who compete in events that mimic real-life situations encountered every day on the cattle ranch. The men and women competing here are real hands at their trade and are some of the best people you would ever want to meet!

The Blue Grass Classic is the largest stock dog trial in the US and showcases dogs and handlers from throughout the country. It was incredible to watch the skill, speed and grace of the working Border Collies in this competition. The ease and effectiveness in which they worked throughout several different situations was a wonder to watch!.

Home from The Californios

We all had the most extra special weekend!!!! Gwynn and Dave Weaver put on THE most extraordinary event. We loved every second of it and just absolutely did NOT want it to end. It was so much fun to meet all of YOU! Thank you for coming by our booth.

For those you that did not attend, The Californios traditional ranch roping is one of the unique contests that showcase the real working cowboy. The event exemplifies the skills necessary on a working cattle ranch.

Again, thanks to all that came to say introduce themselves. Please stay in touch. Remember to visit Prairie Karen!!!
