My grandfather had quarter horses on his farm. He love horses. You forgot that Willie Nelson says, "Mamas, Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys".
I could definitely like Bill Peck, I understand why you love him! With my back messed up I have had a marathon of Cowboy books from Amazon. Yep my heroes have always been cowboys. Also as a traveler I love places in the mid west and places like Rex Allen's Museum in Wilcox AZ. And then of course the OK corral. OH yes Deadwood. LOL Good entry, love the graphics. Sherry & jack
Bill was a character for certain. Altho he has been gone 20+ years, I expect to hear his voice on the phone. Arizona is Cowboy Country. We have traveled there during cooler months.
Your brother was a good looking cowboy! He passed way too young and I'm sorry for your loss. Having just lost a brother I know time won't matter when it comes to missing him. I love that song and Kenny did it well! If you're handing out favorite cowboys I'll take one Tom Selleck and a side order of Sam Elliot!
I used to love cowboy movies, but I don't think I ever had a favourite cowboy. We don't have them out here, we have Stockmen, Station Hands, and Drovers.
Dear Susan, I heard recently that Clint Eastwood is now 91 and getting ready to either direct or star in another movie. He's just intrepid! As to your brother Bill, I, too, have a brother who is my cowboy--who's traveled his own road. He's so dear to me and I learn something from him every time we talk or visit. One of the wonders of living longer--besides just being alive!--is being able to look back over a long life and see the many, many blessings--like my brother. He has been pivotal in my life. Peace.

ReplyDeleteWillie said it well.
DeleteBill's horse was frisky. Only he and Dad could ride it at first.
Clint Eastwood rocks.
ReplyDeleteOh, yeah.

Clint Eastwood second only to Paul Newman
ReplyDeleteOooh. That is a hard one.
DeleteCowboys pretty much passed me by. I never knew any, and the books and the movies don't appeal.
ReplyDeleteI understand. Being from a farming community where horses were used, we were able to use them.
DeleteClint Eastwood ... my first crush as Rowdy Yates. And he just keeps on getting better.
ReplyDeleteOh yes. I remember Rowdy Yates, first crush here too.
DeleteClint Eastwood, John Wayne, James Stewart, Garry Cooper, Audie Murphy ... and I like that Kenny Rogers song too.
ReplyDeleteGreat post, Susan. God bless.
Kenny Rogers died these past months, and I wanted to give him some notes.
DeleteCowboys in the family would be cool. We have Moo Pigs (a name bestowed upon begging dogs. I may have been drinking when that one was invented.)
ReplyDeleteMoo Pigs?! That is a great one. Will tell it to my brother.
DeleteCowboys and Indians was a loooong time ago.
ReplyDeleteThings change and don't change.

ReplyDeleteTom Selleck was a cowboy? I do like Sam Elliot.
DeleteGit along, little dogies!
ReplyDeleteTry saying that to a bunch of students!
DeleteCowboy is an interesting culture.
ReplyDeleteIt is a culture, isn't it.
DeleteI used to love cowboy movies, but I don't think I ever had a favourite cowboy. We don't have them out here, we have Stockmen, Station Hands, and Drovers.
ReplyDeleteNo, I'd be surprised if cowboys were part of your world. there was always "Quigley down under".
DeleteYou got to know when to fold 'em... (when to fold 'em) 😂
ReplyDeletethe only folding I get is the towels.

ReplyDeleteDee! So good to see your name!
DeleteWe are blessed to have our big man cowboys. I sure miss mine.
Salt of the earth people, that's what they are.
ReplyDeleteThey truly are.
