Cowboy enlightenment

Saw this flag in front of a house during one of our walks and loved the cool light and shadow patterns. Perhaps this is the home of a retired rancher. Or a wanna-be-rancher.

In honor of the cowboy, both real and legendary, here are a few Cowboy proverbs (some of which are sayings by Will Rogers):

Don't squat with your spurs on.

If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop diggin’.

If you’re ridin’ ahead of the herd, take a look back every now and then to make sure it’s still there with ya.

Always drink upstream from the herd.

Good judgment comes from experience, and a lotta that comes from bad judgment.

Never approach a bull from the front, a horse from the rear, or a fool from any direction.
