Docadiem

FOUR HOURS FROM CUSTER
Spent last night in Wheatland, Wyo.
Breakfast at my husband's favorite restaurant.

The Western Sky
Filled with western atmosphere,
Lifelong professional waitresses.
Favored by the locals.

I snapped this photo of Bodacious.
Gracing the wall by the front door.
I figured he had to be a rodeo bull.

A couple of wizened faced patrons.
Sporting sweat stained cowboy hats, said,
"You're taking a photo of Bodacious.
Do you know anything about him?"
"No. He looks like a bull to be reckoned with.

Larry continued:
The meanest, baddest bull
ever to hit the rodeo circuit.
Only 2 men ever 'rid' him
One, Tuff Hedeman, 3 x's wrld champ.
He drew Bodacious 3 times.
Went 8 secs in '93.
Badly hurt in 95
Refused to ride in '97.

Bodacious is now retired.
His owner receiving $5,000 for his semen.

Fun to find out about a different kind of bull than the ones will see in Custer.
Thanks Larry.
