Nice opinion piece. I agree with the man. I am sick and tired of idiots who use the term “cowboy” as a derogatory term. If they knew any “real” cowboys, they’d know it is a compliment! http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2011/08/19/give-me-cowboy-values-over-washington-values-any-day/

Gonna warm up a little
Supposed to get up in the 90’s today. Not much breeze today, but they are calling for the wind to blow tomorrow. Cindy and I drove down to a Memorial service for the father of a friend, in Wall last night. Cindy hadn’t been there in awhile so she got to see some of herContinue reading “Gonna warm up a little”
Friends
And damn fine ones at that, stopped in and spent yesterday. they are heading on this morning. So far on their trip, Darrel told me they had gone over 8,000 miles. We looked at a bunch of their pictures on the computer, which they had not gotten to see other than on the small screenContinue reading “Friends”
A fun read
if you are involved with mountain lions, elk hunting deer hunting, or running cattle on private or public land. I’d like your thoughts on this one Corky. 50’s!!! It gets better the further you go. Might want to just check out my comments to and from Jim, for a quicker read.
Artist Ride
Got home yesterday after dinner and a couple friends had gotten here shortly before me.We drove around and looked at some stuff and then Cindy got here, so we picked her up and headed out for some more looking around. Then they had to split. I have been spending this morning trying to catch upContinue reading “Artist Ride”

Sure is quiet
around here. No, “Grampa, can we go ride? Can we watch movies? Grampa what are we going to do now?” It’s a cool gig being a grampa. But kind of hard when they go home after an extended visit.
Last ride
For awhile anyway. Boys head home tomorrow so this evening we went out and they rode around and around in the corral. They swapped horses, Gabe rode Squirt and Lige rode Beaver. Both got along fine and Gabe even managed a sidepass, with a little help from Grampa. We took the tractor up north andContinue reading “Last ride”
Cowpokes
NOWÂ know why they call them that! At least when Lige is riding Squirt cuz’ he’s always poking along! We went out and moved the pairs into another pasture and shut some gates. Pretty good cowpokes if you can get them to understand where you want to go!
