Tygh Valley Indian Rodeo

Yesterday we spend the day at the Tygh Valley Indian rodeo. It's a small event mainly locals, contestants and their families. I think I was the only person there (male or female) wearing flip-flops!

We had a great time. We saw barrel racing (above), bull riding, steer roping and an event I'm not sure the name of where teams of 3 have to catch a wild horse, put a saddle on it and a member of the team has to ride it around the arena once. Actually, this was the most exciting event as 6-8 teams compete at the same time! Lots of action...
