Hillbilly Dispatch #2 from the Pendleton Round: Photos!
Posted by Sarah Mirk on Fri, Sep 17, 2010 at 1:29 PM
At 9AM, we rode up to the Cycle Oregon tent city on a Harley Davidson.
At 10AM, Pendleton broke a world record today for having the most horses ever in a parade. 1,300 horses. That's a lot of horse shit, too.
You must look at these photos of it all. Old woman with gun. Old man with organ. Horseback riders with trombones. John Kitzhaber finally looking like he fits in with those cowboy jeans. Pendleton is everything I dreamed it would be.
My hangover is better, thanks for your prayers. Also maybe some thanks is due to the reindeer sausage hot dog that seems to have cured my ills.
