Dear Buckles: Joyce and I cannot thank you enough for the joy you give us with all of the photos that you have sent out through your blog. I have saved the majority of them to albums on my computer so they cannot be lost if something should happen, given the way our hurricanes and tornados can be. We have not worked with you, but you worked with my Uncle, Mel Cabral, Don Foote's assistant and companion. I inherited quite a few of Don's sketches for RBBB when my Uncle passed away. I am not sure how we might be able to scan them. They are quite large. If you have any advise please let me know. Don did many of the sketches on my Mom and Dad's kitchen table during vacations in Dartmouth, MA. Joyce and I just bought a new MAC computer and I would like to send in photos from time to time. Please let me know if that is OK. Here is a photo from the Clyde Beatty Cole Bros. winter quarters Feb. 1999. Brad Jewell was the bull boss that year. We started the season with six bulls. Pete and Conti were sent back from Staten Island during the 1999 tour, which I am sure you know. I have what may be the only photos of the two bulls being loaded up for the trip back to WQ. I have not scanned all of the photos from later in the tour, but will in the next few months. All photos unless noted have been taken by Peter & Joyce Rosa Again, thank you for taking the time to keep all of us entertained. Peter & Joyce Rosa
