My buddy out in Texas must have been reading my mind while I was thinking about cowboy hats and ranches, because he gave me a call this morning to say howdy. He’s been out in Fort Worth a little over two years – ever since his mom called with the news that his dad was diagnosed with cancer and they needed help with the horses.
They have a big ranch and Tyler had to get a big barn built that his dad started before he got too sick to deal with it. It’s finished and Tyler wants me to come see. I can’t image what a $400,000 dollar barn will look like, but I’m going to find a way to get out for a visit.
I hear that some of the horse’s at Tyler’s ranch have championship lines. One of horses brings in so much in stud fees that they family could give up everything else on the ranch and live comfortably on just those fees. But, horses don’t live forever, and they actually like the other horses, going to rodeos, and boarding horses for other people.
