well, for starters you can take that cowgirl grin, re-straighten it, pull the hat down over the eyes just a bit to keep the sun out.. look at the steer, chuckle and say a prayer.. hop on, hold on, and try to go 8 seconds... some of Alan Jacksons stuff gets me in the spirit.. then i look for the rodeo
you can do it... be one of the ones who never gives up
spend some time and get to know some of the others here... tons of good info for your questions, so pull up a chair, think happy thoughts, and enjoy as much as you are able to!
