Several friends called to see if I knew if RFDTV was going to rerun performances of the 2020 National Finals Rodeo. I didn’t know. After Darlene Henninger called me, I decided to email Patrick Gottsch, who is the founder of RFDTV.
I specifically asked if they were planning any reruns. To my surprise I received a phone call at 7 a.m. the next morning. It was Patrick telling me that The Cowboy Channel was already running encore performances. This channel teamed with Dish Satellite and can be found at 232. Unfortunately, my Directv’s basic package does not have The Cowboy Channel. But, you can get an app for $9.99 a month.

In Oregon, It’s Possible to Stay the Night at a Rural Christmas Tree Farm if You Know Where to Look If you’d given up on arranging that rustic getaway, there is hope in the fields, farms and forests of private landowners across the state. Updated December 16, 2020 In Oregon, there are many ways to commune peacefully with nature. The catch: You must compete fiercely to do it. During peak hiking in summer, you re bound to find trailhead parking lots overflowing, leaving nearby ditches and berms jammed with cars and looking like scrapyards. And booking a campsite is cutthroat business. Unless you time everything just right, yurts and cabins at the most sought-after state parks are all snatched up by weekend warriors far more ambitious than you are.
