The Last Ride (Long Winded)

What a great read

. Thanks for sharing that. We have some professional cowboys here in the back country at Warner Springs Ranch. There is no such thing as a lazy cowboy. They start work before daybreak and are still working well after dark - every day! Feeding horses, loading cattle, mending fences...you name it. I try to make it over to the ranch when they castrate the young bulls. The rope work is amazing. They almost never miss the bull's back legs with that lasso from on top of a moving horse, 15-20 feet from the bull. Talk about hand-eye coordination

.

Enjoy your retirement, stitch. Surely you deserve it.
