'I like old corrals and sagebrush
Ponderosa Pines
Cowgirls in old pick-up trucks
California wines
. . . Ian Tyson,
from his cd 'Eighteen Inches of Rain
Read some great lyrics from Chris Ledoux's song
'Western Skies'.
In June 1996 I was lucky enough to visit Yellowstone again
and play my harmonica and visit
Old Faithful.
What is the West without a good Honky Tonk
????
'The Tattered Cover is my favorite book store in the world.
. . . Barbara Van Cleve
(montana native who was born on and continues to work a ranch her
grandfather established in 1877)
'I was raised to believe what's gonna happen is what's gonna happen,"
'Everyone's gonna die -- that's one thing you can be goddamn sure of.
I think you've got to live your life doin' what you want to do"
And doing it right. Because there is no reride option in that big arena
in the sky.
. . . Ty Murray
(from Gold Buckle by Jeff Coplon)
my favorite quotes - winter 96:
'City people don't understand the affection a person can have for the land - It is a
powerful thing'
