Its not getting any cooler!

Well Ross did 28 miles in 95 degree weather, got into Highland, stayed there two nights. Pulled out of there Saturday morning and swapped out horses. Ross rode to Powder River and attended the sheep headers fair, had a good time, lots of happenings there over the weekend! Today Ross left and made it 18 miles out of Casper. He will be in Casper tomorrow afternoon around two oclock. He said he feels good, back is good...losing a little weight and having great a time!! A very sincere thank you for all that have donated!! Hope to have more pictures this week!

Its HOT out here!!

After leaving his brother Randys, Ross met up with an old cowboy friend and spent the day helping him with some "cutting". Ross left yesterday morning for Lysite and is on his way to Meida heading toward High Island which will be about 20 miles. He will head over to Powder River and then into Casper. He said it is really hot, about 98 degrees yesterday. Seems to be having a good time and has a great attitude.

Having the time of my life!

Ross made it safely to Randy's. He is taking tomorrow off and will be heading out Sunday morning for Kirby Creek, he will camp there and ride on to Lysite. He was interviewed by the Worland paper and as soon as I get a copy of the article I will post it. Also he is sending some more pictures for me to post. He says so far it has just been a blast, really great to be out riding for a good cause. He has met some wonderful people and appreciates the donations that are coming in. This afternoon he is heading to the Chiropractor for a little adjustment, ain't easy on the old mans body sleeping on the bed roll! More to come!!!

And he is off...to raise money for the kids!

Ross began his journey as planned on June 13. That day he made it 22 miles and set up camp for the night. June 14 he rode another 11 miles in the rain, he said it was a beautiful day for riding. He spent the night in Meeteetse and will spend today there letting the stock rest. Pictures will be posted soon! Tomorrow, June 16 Ross will head out of Gooseberry, which is about 17 milies from there he will ride on to SandDraw and camp in the dessert. From SandDraw he will head to Randy's (his twin brother) in Black Mountain Rd.

Thank you for the donations everyone, very much appreciated!!

I am very much looking forward to the next few months and the opportunity to make a difference for some kids that are needing help from St. Judes!! I will be updating this site frequently so please check back and follow me in my journey!!
