Thanks Jayanand,

Before moving up into the Panhandle of Texas, I'd have told you this breed 
only exists in movies and paintings anymore.  Not so, as Bill can testify.

Down in Lubbock (where I grew up) we have farmers who run cattle - caps and 
work boots - we do our cattle work in pickups and ATV's.  Up here, they 
still have ranchers that farm.  Boots, hats and horses.

Any given day in one of the cafes, you will find cowboy hats and hand sewn 
boots that cost more than I make in a month.  The horse is more than just a 
recreational vehicle, it's a part of your working staff.

Jeff M
