Cowgirl Collection 2015

Kun isäntä ensimmäistä kertaa näki kuvat pikku tyttösistä, hän tokaisi ykskantaan, että:" Tämähän on sitten ihan selvästi Parsonian Cowgirl collection!" Siitä se ajatus sitten lähti...ja ajatus tuntui nerokkaalta :) Nimet olivatkin valmiina noin puolessa tunnissa. Pentueen nimet olkoon kunnianosoitus "lehmitytöille" ja Villille Lännelle. Jiiiiiiiiihaaaa!

Saanko esitellä, syntymäjärjestyksessä: 

Ilmetty pikku-Mimi, jolla jo nyt tuntuu olevan ne kuuluisat Camel-bootsit jalassa :) 

Ja se aito Lucille Mulhall, tunnettu cowgirl ja Wild West esiintyjä. Hänet tunnettiin ensimmäisenä naisena, joka kilpaili miesten kanssa lasso- ja ratsastustapahtumissa. Häntä kutsuttiin mm. Rodeo Kuningattareksi, Länsi-Preerian Kuningattareksi ja Satulan Kunigattareksi. 

Lucille Mulhall (October 21, 1885 – December 21, 1940) was a well known cowgirl and Wild West performer.Known as one of the first women to compete with men in roping and riding events, she was called Rodeo Queen, Queen of the Western Prairie, and Queen of the Saddle (among many other appellations). She starred in the Miller Brothers' 101 Ranch Wild West Show, formed her own troupe in 1913 and performed in many rodeo and Wild West shows throughout her career. She produced her own rodeo in 1916.

Fannie Sperry Steele (1887–1983), born Fannie Sperry, was an award-winning bronc rider (Bronc riding, either bareback bronc or saddle bronc competition, is a rodeo event that involves a rodeo participant riding on a horse (sometimes called a bronc or bronco), that attempts to throw or buck off the rider. Originally based on the necessary horse breaking skills of a working cowboy, the event is now a highly stylized competition that utilizes horses that often are specially bred for strength, agility, and bucking ability) and rodeo performer from Montana, one of the first women inducted into the Rodeo Hall of Fame, and the first Montana native in the National Cowgirl Hall of Fame. The only woman rider of the time to ride her entire career without tying her stirrups under the horse’s belly (a practice rodeo judges allowed for women only), Sperry Steele inherited her love of horses, especially Pintos, from her mother Rachel. She won several awards for her riding in professional rodeos during her lifetime, including Women's Bucking Horse Champion of Montana in 1904 at the age of 17, and Lady Bucking Horse Champion of the World of the first Calgary Stampede rodeo in 1912,^[2] where hundreds of cowboys from Western Canada, the United States and Mexico competed for thousands of dollars in prizes. In the Calgary Stampede, Sperry Steele had ridden the horse Red Wing, a wild bronc who had trampled fellow rider Joe LaMar to death only days earlier.^[1]

Martha Jane Cannary syntyi Princetonissa, Missourissa. Jane oli vanhin perheen kuudesta lapsesta. Hänellä oli kaksi veljeä ja kolme sisarta. Janen äiti kuoli vuonna 1866 ja hänen isänsä 1867. Jane otti 16-vuotiaana yksin vastuun koko perheen elätyksestä ja muutti sisaruksiensa kanssa Wyomingin Fort Bridgeriin.

Vuonna 1870 Jane ilmoittautui tiedustelijaksi. On kyseenalaista, oliko hän Yhdysvaltain armeijan listoilla vai ei. Aloitettuaan tiedustelijana hän ei enää juurikaan ollut tekemisissä nuorempien sisarustensa kanssa.

Jane kertoi saaneensa lempinimensä "Calamity Jane" vuonna 1872 pelastaessaan Kapteeni Eganin väijytyksestä.

Martha Jane Canary or Cannary (May 1, 1852 – August 1, 1903), better known as Calamity Jane, was an American frontierswoman and professional scout known for her claim of being an acquaintance of Wild Bill Hickok and fighting Indians. She is said to have also exhibited kindness and compassion, especially to the sick and needy. This contrast helped make her a famousfrontier figure.^[1] Calamity Jane was a frequent visitor to and sometimes resident of Livingston, Montana and towns in the Paradise Valley.^[20]

She came up from a very hardscrabble life, unacquainted with bourgeois notions of decorum; she probably never knew financial security, but even in poverty she was known for her helpfulness, generosity, and willingness to undertake demanding and even dangerous tasks to help others. She was afflicted with alcoholism and wanderlust (and, perhaps, promiscuity), but, as someone remembered her, "Her vices were the wide-open sins of a wide-open country – the sort that never carried a hurt."^[9]

Annie muistuttaa kovasti isäänsä Enzoa.

 Annie Oakley (August 13, 1860 – November 3, 1926), born Phoebe Ann Mosey, was an American sharpshooter and exhibition shooter. Oakley's "amazing talent"^[1] led to a starring role in Buffalo Bill's Wild West show. Her timely rise to fame^[2] allowed her to become one of the first American women to be a "superstar".
