It's just way too early

Connie Jo Discoe/McCook Daily Gazette

Stormy yawns big -- either with boredom or just because the horse show started too early in the morning. The 21-year-old Palomino and her handler, 10-year-old Tyrell Perrigo of St. Francis, Kansas, competed in the Dundy County fair 4-H horse show Wednesday morning -- early in the morning, Mountain Time even. Tyrell explained that she and her brother, Jasper, compete in the Dundy County fair in Nebraska, even through they live in Kansas, because they go to school in Benkelman. Tyrell and Stormy earned a blue ribbon in junior showmanship, despite Stormy's big yawn.
