Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The third in a series of books (including the wildly successful Horse Tales and Cow Tales) about ranch and family life in Idaho, Heather Smith Thomas's Ranch Tales offers a collection of humorous, heartwarming and insightful true stories, each centered on the unique bonds that form between people and the animals - livestock, pets and wildlife - that populate a working ranch. "Ranch life is unique and colorful," Thomas writes. "The jobs we do - raising cattle, working with animals, tending to their needs - are never boring. The animals themselves, and the adventures and circumstances involved with their care, always keep life interesting and fun, as well as challenging. These stories include a bit of humor, and a broad mix of experiences that illustrate how closely entwined our lives are with those of the animals within our care."
Download or read book Ranch Stories written by Linda Pearl Drew and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2008-12 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drop a sleeping bag into the back of a pickup truck, not required but recommended; and drive north, out of the crowd, past the monotony of vineyards, over the curving mountain highway, onto a narrow winding asphalt quilt. Bits of rock rattle into your fender wells, as your tires roll onto a washboard gravel road and a dusty rooster tail whirls against your tailgate. After a while off to your left a gap in the wild oaks that line the roadside afford you a glimpse of Jerusalem Valley. A narrow stream snakes through a rocky riverbed. Sunlight flashes off the frame of dark solar panels that show you she's off the grid. Suddenly a solitary signpost appears with the word Oasis painted lazily across its face. Sliding to a stop, the dust cloud envelopes the pickup. When it clears you may blink or squint, as you get your first look at the straw bale ranch house. This is where Ranch Stories begin. A chicken named Bug, a bare encounter with a bear and burrs in her panties. All things that creep and crawl, observed in league with the nimble curiosity of the cat that is her constant companion. These stories take us on a journey of discovery, laughter, heartbreak and rebirth, experienced by a woman on her own, in her own personal wilderness. Using vivid imagery humor and drama, Linda Drew leads us from the valley to the mountain, introducing us to a plethora of interesting creatures, man and beast along the way. Vignettes, poems and even a mouth watering recipe make up a well rounded rhythmic read.

Book Synopsis A Tenderfoot Bride: Tales from an Old Ranch by : Clarice E. Richards
Download or read book A Tenderfoot Bride: Tales from an Old Ranch written by Clarice E. Richards and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-06-03 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A Tenderfoot Bride" is a memoir by Clarice E. Richards of Dayton, Ohio, who moved to a ranch in Elbert County, Colorado, east of Pikes Peak, in 1900. She was a bride of Jarvis Richards, a former Congregational minister from Vermont. It was an unlikely landing spot for these two educated easterners, but Clarice, with her inquisitiveness and lively sense of humor, became extensively westernized as she witnessed the high tide of the wild, lawless days, followed by much more grazing eras of the sheepman and farmer. Excerpt: "When our train left Colorado Springs and headed out into those vast stretches of the prairie, which spread East like a great green ocean from the foot of Pike's Peak, all the sensations of Christopher Columbus setting sail for a new world, and a few peculiarly my own, mingled in my breast. As the train pounded along I stole a look at Owen. He was absorbed in the contemplation of a map of our new holdings. Under that calm exterior I suspected hidden attributes of the primitive man. Certainly, there was some reason why Western life was to his liking, having had the chance to choose."
