Grand Coulee Show, May 13, 2007. Ridge Rider Road Grounds - Grand Coulee WA - A tournament between the elder daughters of sisters Baroness Hepsebah of Grant and Baroness Lyonessa of Delano Heights. A very fun way to spend Mother's Day!  I was performing in this one, so all shots are from the field between those fights.
