The author tells of his growing up in the spectacular mountains of
Colorado on the Two-Bar Ranch. Life there provides the backdrop for
the funny, wild, and sometimes heart wrenching events he and his
brothers come upon. They encounter right and wrong, life and death
on the ranch.
Many people wish they could have lived an exciting childhood
with great parents, a wonderful dog, many siblings, and vast
freedom in beautiful high mountains. This adventurous boy has all
of these and much more.
Doing the fun and ornery, his home ranch was the site of
stopping the local train, raiding trespassing fishermen, catching
skunks by the tails, teaching magpies to talk, and fishing for wily
trout in unusual ways.
This 1950s story is also about wild pets, hand fishing,
livestock defending, weird hired hands, and feuding with a stubborn
neighbor. Having lived wild, free, and independent, this kid
eventually has to deal with the dreaded sale of his home ranch. Can
he let go or save the ranch he truly loves?
Funny, insightful, and poignant, this story captures a
marvelous growing up. Based on the author's own life, this memoir
provides insights about living an authentic and exciting ranch
life.
