  • Thistle Mudslide

    Thistle Mudslide
    The Thistle Mudslide is located up Spanish Fork Canyon Utah. Before the flooding and mudslides had happened, there was a little town that was there. The mudslide has flooded that town, so it is no longer there anymore. Today, some houses are still up, and you can see some houses half under water. The mudslide had dammed the Spanish Fork river. I interviewed my dad on this event and he said that our good friends dad owned the ranch that was there. He had lost lots of livestock.

    The first of summer 2019, I won the Diamond Fork Riding Club Winter Series Little Buckaroo Rodeo Queen 2019! It is a very long title so for rodeos we shortened it to, 2019 Winter Series LBR Queen. It was in the evening and I rode my reining horse Remi. He is a bae horse with 1 1/5 ears! I had worn a pink outfit, and was very nervous, but ended up doing my best contest yet! I was very excited because it was also the first year that they decided to have a rodeo queen for that rodeo!
