Ryan Mapston Saddle Bronc Rider

If you look at the post: A MONTANA MINUTE TO LAST A LIFETIME I mentioned him in the 3rd to last picture. Watch this video.

A MONTANA MINUTE TO LAST A LIFETIME.

Here is the part where I tell you about my adventures to MONTANA!!!! I went there to learn how to live on a ranch (cause that's what I want to do) and take care of horses and etc.......
It's summer there and it only got to 81 degrees! Here in California it gets to 112! And it's sooo green there! I would love to live in Montana or Texas. It's just the cowgirl in me:) So here are some pictures......                                (Mind you these are all pictures I took accept the lasts and the first.)

                                  Here's me shootin' trap with a shotgun. If you knew me
you wouldn't take me for someone that likes shooting guns. I do though, and it's a BLAST!!! I shot a couple in a row so I guess you could say I'm pretty good;)                                          

Here is my mom shooting trap. She's pretty good. She shot about 4 discs. 
This is me and a mare (a girl horse) that I found in a pasture alone.
She's a sorrel and her name posh. 
 See me?
 I love this picture!!!
 My favorite thing in this picture is the sun rays. There was a barb wire fence between us so I got poked a couple times.
 

Look at the VIEW!!!
There were wild flowers everywhere! It was so pretty!
 

 Here I just finished a cattle drive. We brought them to the mountains for cheaper grass on state land.
 
 This picture is of me and a black mare.
Name of person: FAITH Name of animal: BLACK MARE
Seriously her name was black mare and she was a black mare soo....YA
 Me on a cattle drive......
 This is black mare again. In the eye you can see me sitting on the horse trailer.
 That's sunny the pony. Beautiful picture I think.
Posh.
 I rode four different horses while I was there and this was my favorite.
His name is lumpy. He is a sorrel gelding. He was also the best horse on the ranch.
 My leg next to lumpy. Mines the one with the hoof and..... HARDY HAR HAR ;)
 My mom barrel racing on lumpy.
 I don't think you know who Darcy Mapston is but, she is a professional barrel racer.
She gave us lessons.
 Me in the barn taking care of the horses...
 On our way to salt the cattle. You can look up what than means 'cause I don't want to type it out.
Meet Mr. Ryan Mapston the professional rodeo bronc rider!! He is a super strong christain cowboy. Look him up and watch his interview. Or you can see my next post of his interview. 
One of my best friends Gabby that lives in Montana now is on the taller horse. She used to live in CA but moved to Montana. I miss her So much but I was glad I got to see her then. I will visit soon again next year hopefully! Visit her blog at:
