Rose and I spent Saturday at Deadman's Creek.
According to the Wikipedia, the river's name dates back to 1817, when
Pierre Charette of the
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_West_Company>North West Company
was killed by his travelling companion in a quarrel over the campsite.
Today it is a small, First Nation's Reserve, with most of the
inhabitants living in nearby Savona (pop. 640). But for a small
place, they throw a mean rodeo!
Like all things important, success is determined by the way you hold
your tongue...

Rodeo cowboys feel there are only 3 ways to leave a bucking bronc, or bull...
Out the front door, the side door, or the back door.
This fellow used the back door... and with considerable style....

C&C welcomed, as always...
Cheers!
