cowboys, cowgirls and the horse ballet

 

Went to the charros today.  A combination rodeo and horsemanship exhibit.  Beloved by the locals, its a glimpse into the horse history of Mexico.  Attended by mostly locals (and their kids).  So anytime I say locals, I mean locals-and-their-kids.  And many times its Grandma, Grandpa and various Aunts and Uncles, cousins, etc.  As usual here, its a kind of loose start and end time so people come and go as they have time.

Amazing horsemanship!
