Cowboy Gear
We attend the Ranch Rodeo in Choteau, Montana each year on the first week in September. Ranch rodeo is fun, because you know some of the people participating, and the events are different than other rodeos.

Buck Looking Back
We took friends with us on a photo shoot. We filled the Yukon with a picnic lunch, our coats and our four bodies and off we went. The sun was shining but the weather was cold and windy. We drove west from Cascade, Montana to the top of the mountain, where we parked the car to eat lunch. The wind howled around us and the car rocked. It was fun to sit inside, filling our tummies and visiting, while we looked down on Square Butte and the surrounding countryside.
When we were full, we headed back down the mountain. It was when we’d reached the flats that we found this deer. He was right along the road, and he didn’t move off as we approached. He seemed to pose for us, showing off his beautiful antlers with each turn of his head.
It was quite an awesome thing to spend this time with him and enjoy his presence. I hope you enjoy seeing him also!
Prints of this mule deer buck can be found here on my Red Bubble Gallery.
