Labor Day Weekend in Palestine IL

Every year we go to Palestine Illinois for the big rodeo and a family get together. It's pretty much a tradition. I have been going to the rodeo since I was born I would have to say. If you don't know what the rodeo consist of ,it's bare back , calf roping, barrel racing, and bull riding. And then there is a funny clown that is there and his name is Rudy!!! People come from all over, the states. Anyways though this year I didn't make it down there till Sunday . So I missed the up town sales and the chuck wagon breakfast and the best part, lunch with the clowns... This is a time for family to get together and visit and catch up on what everyone is doing and things. Here are some pics of the family and rodeo. Oh yeah there is also a parade on Monday morning... Tons of Candy too..... We all wait for the Hershey truck to go by and grab all of that...
