Subject: Back from the Windy City.......

Well we made it back from Chicago all in one piece. I kept hearing horror stories about the traffic and thankfully we didn’t have any problems with any. And we were no where near the riots. We had a wonderful time, it was so nice to see everyone there. We got to have breakfast yesterday with Adriano and Valdiron and that is always a treat. Adriano constantly cracks me up. From the way he talked, although he’s retiring he is still planning on being at nearly every PBR event in one capacity or another. Let me tell you, I was thrilled to learn that information. I know you guys probably get tired of hearing me talk about Adriano but well too bad. LOL! When he gave Robyn and I our tickets he said here is an extra set for two people I need you to make sure they get them. It turns out that the tickets were for a father and son. The mom passed away in February and she was an avid PBR fan and Adriano wanted to do this for her family. Isn’t that sweet? The father didn’t get to come because he was away on business but we got to meet Jase and his friend Jake on Saturday night and then Seth came with Jase on Sunday. They were all very nice young men and so happy to be at the bull riding and just tickled that they got their tickets from Adriano. Guilherme brought his 3 year old daughter Manuela with him, she is a doll baby. Manuela as with Robyn and I and we played through most of the bull riding Saturday night except for when her daddy was riding. She had to stand up on my lap and watch him. Sunday she was a little worn, she fell asleep after the 2nd or 3rd ride and didn’t wake up until the middle of the short go. She is a very good little girl and so smart! Guilherme and his wife Patricia have done a wonderful job with her. Ok, so back to Adriano…it was so wonderful to be there to see him win (well split 1st & 2nd)! I think that was just what he needed. Congratulations to him and to Dustin Hall. Sure hated to see Chris Shivers get beat up like he did….broken cheek bone and eye socket. That will probably keep him out for awhile unfortunately. J.B. left the building on crutches but I never did hear the extent of his injuries. And what did you guys all think about Zack Brown’s hang-up? That could have turned out so much worse. Those bull fighters as just AWESOME. I just can’t give them enough props for the job they do every weekend to protect the bull riders. According the boys Paulo is a bit bummed out about not being back to riding yet so if any of you want to send a get well/thinking of your card to Paulo let me know and I’ll get you my mailing address and then I’ll mail them all at once to him. I’m guessing you are all tired of my ramblings so I’ll stop here. Well I won’t completely stop; I need to post your scores too. Have a great day everyone!
Kris

Hey Kris,
My score is inncorrect. After Billings I had 7875 and according to Chicago results I got 350 point but my score after Chicago still says 7875.....you must have partied too hard in Chicago...LOL. I too had lots of fun in Chi-town (and very little sleep). I got to meet a few of the new young guns (Jimmy and Pistol) as well as my favorite Justin...man he is really funny.

OOPPPSSSS! Looks like the formula on my spread sheet for your totals line didn't work right. Your total should be 8225. Sorry about that girl. And I went and checked everyone else's scores and they were fine. Again, sorry about that, I'm a dork sometimes.

I thought that was you in Chicago but wasn't 100% sure so I didn't say anything. I hope you don't think I was trying to be a snot. I didn't get a whole lot of sleep either but did have a great time. Wasn't that a really nice hotel?

Hey Kris,
No problem on the scoring boo-boo. I just chalk it up to lack of sleep from Chicago...LOL. Yes I was in Chicago and I thought the same thing...is that Kris or not? Well I am going to Nashville so if I see you there (or any other event)I will definately say hi. I had a blast as usual and too got very little sleep.
