Let Her Buck!

Red Ants Pants completed the last leg of the Coastal Tour at the 59th Annual Miles City Bucking Horse Sale. We rolled into town on Friday night towing quite a Red Ants Pants entourage. One truck towed the Ant Hill and another truck pulled the Bucking Ant all the way from White Sulphur Springs to the big city lights of Miles City.

No self-respecting float would be complete without a wonderful crew of supporters and a huge thank you goes out to: Rusty & Anna, Andy, Mike, Crystal, Becky, Anna B, Bethany, Jennie, and Fred-the best looking dog to wear a RAP t-shirt. You all looked great on the float and did a damn fine job of promoting RAP. Thank you! We rocked Main St. on Saturday morning with our float and throughout the day we saw lots of fans using the latest edition of RAP koozies.

Post parade, our entourage enjoyed the sunshine, warm temperatures and the impressive festivities. Dressed to kill in the latest RAP t-shirts and pants, we strolled through downtown, watching the rest of the 1 1/2 hour long parade, eating delicious street vendor food and, of course, cheering at the Bucking Horse Sale and Horse Races! As the sun set on all of those cowboy hats, we kicked up our heels at the street dance.

We're so happy and honored to end this leg of the tour with so many dear friends, newly formed friends and many supporters from the eastern corner of Montana to southern California, and the spectacular places between. Our most sincere appreciation goes out to all of our house party hosts for welcoming us into their homes and allowing us to bring "Work Strong" to their friends and neighbors. Thank you, thank you, thank you to all of our new customers and supporters--your enthusiasm, wisdom and hardworking soul is nothing short of impressive and continues to drive us as we drove over 4,000 beautiful miles.

So, this ends our blog for now. Sarah will spend some much needed time back at her home and shop, busy as ever with all the RAP duties. Nellie is most excited to stretch her four legs and chase around the shop cat, Magpie. What a travel companion she was! And Maggie will wander on home to Whitefish where Glacier National Park beckons her.
