Meanwhile ... back at the Falkland Stampede...
Two, young, Alberta ladies, Shelby Cummings and Cassie Horner, do
trick riding ... and they're very good at it!

They ride to raise funds for the "Children's Wish Foundation" ... the
group which makes dreams come true, for children who are terminally ill.
Hanna - age 7 - has always wanted to be a Cowgirl ... though it
seemed unlikely that she'd ever get the chance.
So, when "The Crazy Cowgirls" (as Shelby & Cassie are known) came to
Falkland (population 600), they spent their off-time teaching Hanna
and her friend, Ursala, how to groom horses and do a "Hippodrome
Stand". Then, on Monday - the last day of the Rodeo, Hanna had her
wish come true. She became a cowgirl.

C&C welcomed, as always.
Cheers!

PS: If you wish to see more of the "Crazy Cowgirls", Hanna and
Ursala, someone made a video of their Falkland performance and has
posted it on YouTube.
The quality is rather poor, but if you watch, really closely, you can
see me, on the far side, by a fence-post, a camera in my hand and a
cream coloured Tilley on my head. I can be spotted at the 0:35, 1:40
and 3:21 marks. (Does this qualify as making me a movie star?)
