February 2024 - Note from the Saddle Bench

Photo Courtesy of Jill Miller, Rimrock Photography Hi folks, Hope you were fortunate enough to be under a cloud and get some rain the last couple of weeks. Sounds like it has rained over a good bit of most of Texas. Still nothing here in far west Texas. The Art of the Cowgirl was a really great show.
