It’s Mrs. Van De Gar a-doin’ the signin’ today. Lookin’ down on all yore happy faces puts me in mind of the time I, too, was wearin’ a very similitude of one athem my ownself. Back up on the Rio it were. Nossir. That ain’t it. Was more up on the ridge jest above Thompson Ridge. You know … the one what ain’t got a name? Thass it. And there I were, on this year ridge and I was thinkin’ about all yore happy faces these years in the future, and it made ol’ Windy here smile no end. Yessir. We grown-ups given you our best trainin’ and good food and let you play ball, if you was of a mind to, and it’s all leadin’ up to this year moment when we coagulate you all together and say, go get ‘em!

You deserve it. And remember, when life gets bumpy, take a deep seat and a short rein and spur it over the shoulders on the first jump. And you can tell ‘em I said so.
