The Old Timers Reunion

Every year in July, the weekend after the fourth, Magdalena holds its Old Timers Reunion come rain or come shine. Sometimes it's almost deadly hot; this year it rained buckets, though that never cancels out the rodeo because, well, this is the West after all. No cowboy worth a damn is gonna cry over a little mud on his boots. This is our fourth summer here and the first time I've managed to get good pictures -- here are a few, and the rest are on a Flickr slideshow. Enjoy!


Our friend Gerry, waiting patiently for the parade to start (and end)
