A Little Cowboy History...
In the ol' days the cowboy was the glue that held the West together. Ranchers would hire cowboys to keep a watchful eye over the herds on the wide open range. Although the addition of the fenced in herds has removed some of the need for cowboys, you can still see the skills that these old cowboys had by attending a rodeo. Even today cowboys show off their talent with bullriding, using the lasso, and roping and tying steers.

There are still a few of us today that believe that the country life is the best way to live and raise a family. With good morals and family ties. Riding the range is a satisfying feeling. The feel of the saddle the smell of the horse and leather. I would never want anything more.
