What a fascinating history! I love Alex's Rodeo Break newsletter, and was excited to see this post - and how cool would it be for someone to capture audio oral histories of this rich tradition. Thanks for this amazing post.

Beth! I am blown away! Thank you so much for history lesson in how "rodeo break" came to be! I have a deeper appreciation for this string of words and for you and your writing. (Also thank you for giving me my mood board for the weekend: La Fiesta de los Vaqueros!) Feeling so very honored by this <3

Thank you, Alex! This was a fun story to research - and made me think I might need to take my own Rodeo Break! ;-)
