"SAAAAAAAWEEEEEEEEEEEEET!"


Also "That bwoy's happier 'n a twister in a trailer park riiiiite naaaow!! WOOOOOOOOOHOOO!!!"

Spent the day in what they kept referring to 'Downtown Crapaud' saturday to shoot/take in the 29th Annual PEI Truck and Tractor Pull Championships.


Now to understand why 'Downtown Crapaud' is a bit funny, the place is well....basically made up of a few fields, some houses and misc buildings and then the Crapaud Exhibition Grounds. By 12pm the place was jam packed with people, and the weather was nice-if not a bit hot later in the afternoon. The announcer was responsible for my two opening quotes, and kept things going and pretty lively all day-and somehow we managed to not get shot at. It wasn't a lack of trying on Chris' part-he broke out the total hick accent most times while talking back and forth throughout the day. Between that and my appearance of questionable ethnicity somehow we walked away and weren't shot or tied to the back of any vehicles.

Lots of local rigs and some crazy rigs from away ended up being a pretty big field of competitors.

For some reason I now feel the need to purchase a cowboy hat, manhole cover sized belt buckle and some cowboy boots. LOL perhaps not the look for me.

Here's a few quick grabs from Saturday. Yeeeeee-Haw.

As always, click for larger images-these resized blogger ones look poopy.
