The Cowboy


The horse showed up riderless. For two days they back tracked the prints and 16 miles later found the fallen cowboy. Nobody knows how, or why, just that he had passed. The former lodge owner told me this summer the wife of the cowboy would come by the lodge, as she does every summer, and ask me to go out and tidy up the marker with her, and would we be responsible for it's safekeeping.

Responsibility accepted.
