Kentucky Home Inspector goes to the Rodeo

Well, I returned safely from Chicago (3 days of writing & reviewing new questions for the National Home Inspector Exam) but needed a breath of fresh air and some entertainment.

Driving down the road just north of Georgetown, I found my answer. The Southern Extreme Bull Riding Association was in town, sponsored by the Georgetown-Scott County Fraternal Order of Police.

Unfortunately, my "real" camera wasn't with me. So the pictures are from my cell phone camera (1st time I've used it in the few months I've had it). I should have practiced more before, as you can see below.

$10.00, three big fat hot dogs (loaded with condiments) and two hours of good entertainment. Met some nice people, including a couple of candidates running for local elections, passed out several business cards (market, market & then market some more), and really enjoyed a simple evening of pleasure.

Saw some good bull riding, along with a couple of real crashes (but no serious injury).

Lot's to do in Scott County if you just get up and do it. That's my usual difficulty. When I'm not working, I have trouble overcoming inertia. Glad I did tonight.

I took several more photos but, as you can see, I just don't have the hang of that cell phone camera thing. Too bad none of the clown pictures came out. He was really quite good. Fortunately, the pictures are much better on the SEBRA website

Get up, get moving. Enjoy the simple pleasures of life!

Nah, I stopped that foolishness when I turned 20 and found it was more fun to chase wild women!

The pictures look great, I have stopped using my regular camera and rely soley on my cell phone for pictures they come out nice I can take up to 1000 of them and the biggy for me is that I don't have to carry a million gadets along with me.

Looks like you had fun at the rodeo.

With over 100 pictures per inspection, the camera is a good backup, but just really doesn't do the job for what I do with a camera.

Thanks for sharing though.  I'm sure it works for some people.

Looks like fun! I haven't been to a rodeo in way too long.  Thanks for sharing the photos.  Not too bad, I can see what they are at least!

Thanks Tom.  I appreciate that.  It was a good time for all, well, except for those crashes!
