Sowwy. :-P<br /><br />Awwww, yay!! I'm so glad the post reminded several of you of all your writing projects.

This is BRILLIANCE and you put it into words SO WELL. This is another of my favorite aspects of westerns -- these guys stick by each other, in life and till death.

I mean, now that I stop to think about it.

And I...This post was is so heartwarming, Olivia. And I'm not being a bit sarcastic. <br /><br />Your descriptions of the cowboys life is really thrilling; my dreamers (ahem) writers imagination is stirring in all sorts of directions now! <br /><br />I wonder if the reason there are so many good friendships in Westerns is that there is an almost equal number of good horsemen. Really, it's a proven fact that those who are fine tuned and sensitive with animals can be EXCELLENT at understanding people and it's something I think is quite true.
