A Spring Break for the Bull
This past spring break I only stayed in my own bed three nights over the whole break. One of those nights was the Sunday before we went back to school so I didn’t really have a choice. I spent the entire Spring Break with all of my really good friends!
We did a lot of really fun things, some probably seemed stupid to others but we didn’t care. The most fun thing we did the whole break was a ride a barrell.
I know that sounds crazy to those that have no clue what I’m talking about, but let me exlain. One of our friends has a spring barrell that is hanging in his barn. It’s a barrell hanging by ropes and springs. The idea is it’s like riding a bull. Except when you fall off you don’t have the change of being trampled over by a raging animal.
We asked if we could come ride and he was more than happy to let us. He explained how it worked and we got on! No one fell off at first, but then he convicned Bailey to try to go side to side. Well she was on a total of two seconds before she fell off. And she wasn’t lucky enough to land in the hay. She got thrown across the floor. She didn’t end up getting hurt and we contiued to ride.
Next Cody convinced us to try and ride with two on at a time. We didn’t even hesitate. Marlee and I volenteered and we hoped on. I held on to the rope and she held on to me. We didn’t last very long. We were on for maybe five seconds a then fell off. We flipped over the front and both landed on our heads. We both lived but we decided to call it quits after that.
