I live in a small rural town in Oklahoma. I am retired from the United States Postal Service. My husband and I raise a few cattle and have lived here for many years. We are active in our local FFA and 4-H programs. Our grandsons are active with showing sheep. They are also active in archery, trap, skeet shooting. We go to most of their events and support them. Writing children’s books has been a long time desire for me. I am finally getting the time to do so.

The competition is tough in the roughest sport on dirt. The bulls are ready for smoke-blowing, snot-slinging, and tail slapping action. The Native American bulls will be showing their dancing skills as they perform a special dance. There’s lots of action, humor, attitude, and of course dirt.
