Take a wild guess...

This is interesting, I've been researching for a history class that I am taking the UN. I found this and thought it was interesting.

Why are we trillions of dollars in debt and we finance 22% of the UN? It doesn't make sense to me,

Song

This is one of the songs I have been working on. I am preforming it on July 3rd at the Folk Festival up in Hailey. I got it a couple of weeks ago and only started practicing this week put it isn't as hard as it looks thankfully!

I love the Lyrics to this song! They are so appropriate compared to some songs! It is something that I can sing to the best of my ability because I really do believe in it. I know that it is true! The Lyrics are sure strong words!

Outlaw Days 2010

Today was Outlaw days. We were in the Parade for my dad's campaign I walked Hank in it and then we ran home, saddled the horses and went over to the arena. We forgot the camera so I don't have any pictures. Caleb won the calf riding(all 3 of the boys did it) and I did barrels and poles. On barrels my time was 25.something and on poles my time was 35. something. It was kind of cool, because my goal times were 25 for barrels and 35 for poles!! After I just finished poles I was doing the half circle that I usually do right after my run so I don't run right into the gate(I've tried that and I almost FLEW out of the saddle!) but Bailey didn't want to stop after the half circle and I kind of lost my hold and almost fell off! I was like half on for a couple of seconds! Jared did barrels too(he didn't want to do poles). It was a fun day! Fanny got to go too because it was a travel opportunity, to meet new horses, be around lots of new sounds, etc. we didn't compete on her though. She just got to watch! And thankfully it didn't rain! It was supposed to earlier this month when we looked and we were watching it throughout the week and then one day it said it was only supposed to be cloudy! And it was PERFECT for a rodeo. I wore a short sleeved shirt even!

Day on the Hill!

Today(after spending the night at Emily's) we went to the J. R Williams building and had our "Stonesetters" day on the hill. It was sooooooooooo cool!!! All of our bills passed(Jared: State Dog, Luke: State essay contest, Me: fishing liscence ban)! And then we went over to the "New" Capital Building for a tour. It was awesome! Also I met my penpal(from last year)!!! It was fun to hang out together, I haven't seen her since last year, and we keep emailing and writing letters...but...that just isn't as fun(although getting a letter is fun). Hear are some pictures:
