Thursday we haided t'th' Stampede show groun's. It was sunny an' 30 Degrees Celsius.
On the train it was a hot as Satin’s oven. I felt like stashin’ my hat.
Whut in tarnation ah love about this hyar time of year, is thet yo' kin git on a train, wif a cowfella hat, cowfella boots, kerchief, bolo, etc. an' nobody gives yo' a second look, yo' hafta be mighty fine dressed ta ketch some ones eye.

"The Calgary Stampede, which bills itself as The Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth, is a large festival, exhibition, and rodeo held in Calgary, Alberta for 10 days every summer from early to mid-July. It is one of Canada’s largest annual events, and the world’s largest outdoor rodeo. It features an internationally recognized rodeo competition, a midway, stage shows, concerts, agricultural competitions, chuckwagon races, First Nations exhibitions, and pancake breakfasts around the city, among other attractions.” – Wikipedia

It was so dry, th' bushes follered th' houn'dogs aroun', eff'n ya git mah meanin’.
Ah felt like a tee totaller in th' last chance saloon, as enny fool kin plainly see.




At th' groun's it was as noisy as a ca'f co'ral, ah reckon.

Them houn'dogs were ackin like they were tryin’ t'chin th' moon, as enny fool kin plainly see.
One mean Bronco, he had a nose yuh c'd sto'e a small houn'dog in, as enny fool kin plainly see.
He arched he’s back like a mule in a hailsto'm; he was travellin’ faster than bad noos at a church social, ah reckon.
