I don’t know a lot about mules. He wasn’t a colt. He was a small mule. A kicking mule. We named him after the kicker for the Vikings. For twenty years Nelson has guarded the bucking mares. He kept coyotes, wolves, bear and gypsies away from the mares. He fought wild stallions, goblins and werewolves. And he always followed the pickup when you wan...

Bernie supported himself working weekends for several local ranchers, namely the Camerons, and cleaning out t...

Entries were down somewhat this year but considering the hot weather, there were enough hardy souls to put on a great show for an appreciative audience in the bleachers. There were some fascinating entries and a very decorative, cowboy/clown announcer, Susan Tooke, to complement...
