    LOL! That cowboy aint mine! Just a pic I took when I came across a trail ride in Bandera. Spending time in the country is always refreshing for me.

    Very nice Darlin! I have one of those Watusi Longhorns in my freezer!
    PS Maybe the cowboys were in a back room!

    Cricket,

    Did ya talk to him? I would have said “Turn around so I can get another picture of you from the front”.

    I’m not shy!

    Great pictures!

  6. Cricket Walker Says:

    @ Eric – that must be one really big freezer!

    @ Chance – It is soooo pretty up there. Wish I lived there! :)

    @ Ellen – Oh heck no! I almost fainted when he caught me taking his picture from under the tree and tipped his hat at me. Still wiping drool off the poor camera. =)

    Thank you Kelly. It’s hard not to feel passionate about country life. :)

    Cricket, I’m trying to figure out who you are? Are you ex-COG? Did Ironsides clue you in about my Facebook accnt?

    Regardless, I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed looking at your pictures here. You make me jealous, too. I live in SD, but it sure looks purdy there… wherever you were.

    Hi Vivian! Since I don’t recognize your name either, I am guessing one of our friends on FB recommended us to each other.
