Unfortunately, we had to get young son off to school in the morning and my wife had to go to work as well. Otherwise, we certainly would have let our hair down.

(ya, I'm your friend.)
I ha...Hello, my friend! (ya, I'm your friend.)<br /><br />I have a really nice cowboy hat. I steam shaped it to the style I wanted and fit it perfectly to my head. I always used to wear it to functions and rodeos. Dug it out of the back of the top closet shelf and tried it on in front of the mirror and considered wearing it for a bit. In the end, I went with no hat at all. <br /><br />Although, I did come home with a straw cowboy hat. They were giving them out at the rodeo dance that we popped into for a few moments before we left for home. I think it might make a nice beach hat? Or it might also make me look like an 20 year old collage girl on spring break? I haven't made up my mind on that one just yet. :)Kenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17697779460254600164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1688123750377283575.post-5510468756773599252012-11-10T21:22:29.510-07:002012-11-10T21:22:29.510-07:00How do they get donkey's to hold the bat?

I...Awesome post, Ken! Very funny and well-written.<br /><br />I had a girlfriend once named Big Bad Butch who wore cowboy boots 24/7, 365 days a year. And you're right -- those leather soles are as smooth as a baby's ass and have no traction whatsoever. But she refused to wear any kind of "nerd shoe," as she contemptuously called all other footwear.<br /><br />I hope you and your wife enjoyed yourselves in our fine city, despite the crappy weather and roads.<br />Debra She Who Seekshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01845703092794695023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1688123750377283575.post-11538636163595368172012-11-10T15:27:27.707-07:002012-11-10T15:27:27.707-07:00Ken... farmer, cowboy, or toll booth operator... y...Ken... farmer, cowboy, or toll booth operator... you're a good man in my book, and happy to 'know' you.
