Exciting 1st day of Roping!!

My family has been building a roping arena. Well they have got enough done that they are able to rope. Oh what fun it is to go and watch them. Ok maybe not just them, but the animals too. We get quite a show. The 1st day was Saturday (3-29-08). Steven had had his 3 horses Saucey, the Bay and Pancho and JJ had Chico all down at the arena and Chauncy was on his way riding Paco. When I 1st got there I was talking to Ciminy while they were down at the bottom prepping the cow to come up the return lane, I looked up and the bay got loose from her halter and took of RUNNING down the arena to where Saucy was. They finally go her caught and took her back and tied up again. Well Saucy didn't like that either, so she broke her bridle and was bucking in the cow’s coral. they got those 2 all figured out and look up and Pancho got loose. He started to head up towards JJ's house. After chasing him for a while they caught him too. The cows were funny to watch too because they didn't like going into the shoot so they gave us a show too.
