There's nothing like a western "whatever," be it rodeo or Desert Caballeros Ride to remind us of the basic patriotism and wholesomeness of the American people.
Our flag flying, everyone removing their hats and placing them over their hearts, and a young woman with a magnificent voice singing "God Bless America" and then the National Anthem. I was not the only one in the crowd with tears in my eyes.
It was really moving and for me, having been overseas for so long, a wonderful reminder of how patriotic we Americans really are.
