Kids attempting to ride sheep at the annual County Fair. I hadn't been for 6 years. No youth rodeo these days but a big turnout with about 100 kids with their parents and friends cheering in the stands. Brave kids! Some rides only lasted a second others much longer. Points awarded on each ride. Even when being ground into the dirt most still tried to keep one hand in the proper position for style points. Sorry for so many photos, saving to my album. Many not very sharp. Had tons more I'm not saving. :-)

This mutton buster made it to the end of his ride but fell off just upon entering the herd of sheep at the opposite end of the arena.
