For the Fourth, we headed "over the hill" to Prescott, where Frontier Days was going on. It is a combination of a rodeo, craft fair, carnival and fireworks. It is spread out over town in three different locations, so we packed a lot into the day. We even got a nice thunderstorm!
We started off at the rodeo, but the boys got bored after awhile, so we didn't stay for the whole thing. I think they save the bull riding for last, which is really what they wanted to see. We'll have to wait for the Bull Bash in CV.
We thought the calf roping was a little mean(beats being veal), but the bucking broncos were impressive. Serious core workout for the cowboys!
After walking around the craft fair in downtown Prescott, sitting on some nice soft green grass for some chill time(my favorite activity of the day), and getting caught in a thunderstorm, we headed over to Pioneer Park for a carnival and fireworks. Not much of a carnival. Most of the rides had shut down because of the storm, but we had front row seats in the parking lot for the fireworks, which were pretty impressive. The parade was on the 5th, so we missed that, but got a lot of good stuff in on the fourth!
