    He reminds me of my dad. He loved his cattle. He was respected by all his friends. There was never a short day. And many of them were helping his neighbors. He’s been gone 2 years now. And I miss him so much. Sad but I will never be half the man he was.

    He’s the real deal. I’m gratified to see people still riding horses into their 80’s and 90’s.

    I grew up on the 6666, my dad was one of Boot's best friends. I laughed when he was talking about what people wear, the last time I knocked on his he answered it in underwear and a t shirt with his boots and a hat on. Love you, Boots

    The man shoeing the horse was using a hoof stand and cradle that my good friend and horseshoer Billy Williams invented. Flip it one way and it is a cradle to hold the foot as shown and flip it the other way and it is a hoof stand to finish the feet.
