To all you N Bar Cowboys out there, I just read the following in a booklet included in a new Garth Brooks collection I have just bought. Now it doesn't really matter whether you're a Garth Brooks fan or not but it's a nice story and I think it will strike a chord with you all.
Merry Christmas to all fellow N Bar veterans and
Good Luck to all at the N Bar for 2006

I was on the road when I got a call from a buddy of mine telling me my horse "Cracker Jack" had died. This was the first horse all three of my girls had rode and the last horse my Mother had ridden........ A True Friend. I tried like hell to get back home that evening to bury him but I couldn't get there until the next morning. As I pulled up in the pasture where Cracker Jack laid, I realized my buddy had built a campfire and had slept next to Cracker Jack all night with a 30/30 to keep the coyotes off him. Where I'm from,when someone does something extraodinary for someone else, we call him a cowboy. Well in this case my buddy was cowgirl buddy of mine named Tami. I guess it just goes to show you......."sometimes the best cowboys aint cowboys at all".
