T-BoyToday is National Day of the Cowboy
What are you wearing?
I will be wearing one of my palm leaf cowboy hats, cowboy boots, ribbon collar shirt and 4 pocket vest.
Tonight we will probably watch at least one of my more than 300 western movies. Just don't know which one yet.

I just donned my cowboy hat in commemoration!

ARMT GuyAwww hell, why not?
Just donned my Cavalry Stetson.
( Too hot for boots though and my spurs don't mix well with flip-flops.

)

Rolan_KrapsI shot a Cowboy Action Shooting match. I came in second in my category and 16th overall. I shot clean (no misses). When we finished, the temperature showed 101°!

We shoot next weekend. And yes, here in Texas we start our shoots at 8:00AM so we can finish early. Next month we will have our Hawaiian match ... You can wear shorts and a aloha shirt as long as you still wear your cowboy boots and hat.

Bisleyblackhawk^^^^I wish we would do this...I almost melted into a pile of lard like substance at the Ocoee Rangers shoot today...it wasn't quite as hot as Rolan's shoot (we just hit 95 degrees)...but, hey, I was dressed as a cowboy (at least as a "Hollywood " cowboy

)...I'm thinking about a Wild West kilt next month!

T-BoyFor entertainment tonight the wife has insisted on a movie with high drama and social relevance ... So we opted for Blazing Saddles.

Our match today was "boots and hats", meaning everything else was optional. I wore a "Steampunk" T-Shirt and shorts!

Well at least you wore something

Anyone show up naked, except for boots and hats off course.

arfmelI fed two horsies for a friend who went out of town. That's about as cowboy-like as I get.
