"In'So You Wanna Be A Cowgirl', I made my debut as a horse wrangler at Rimrock Ranch in Cody, Wyoming, and I met a good-looking cowboy named Dustin!"

"Have just finished your book. Normally I manage to read a page or two...but you kept me awake into the small hours....Your book was a real page-turner for me as I re-lived life at Rimrock...We too had been up on Ptarmigan...I felt so nostalgic for it all and wish I could go back...I am now waiting for the next installment--surely there'll be one?"

Horse wranglers guide guests through beautiful and sometimes treacherous country, making sure they are safe and well fed - and making the most of what may be a once in a lifetime adventure!

Cowgirl Days

"My heart skipped a beat or two as I watched him (Jalam Akeem) run, spin and reverse directions periodically, living up to his name by prancing like a proud prince. ...fine black tipped ears that were alert to every nuance around him; intelligent eyes set in a nice wide forehead that narrowed to a delicate muzzle. His wide jowl and neck were typical mustang. His high tail carriage and short body were definitely Arab...his extended pasterns would ensure smooth gaits. His coat was a rich brown with black leggings and a black dorsal strip..."

"...'Mustangs make wonderful, loyal companions if they are gentled and treated kindly at the onset'...I don't think Leena realized that I had trained young mustangs at Rimrock Ranch last year. I looked forward to working with all of them: the yearlings, two-year-olds, three-year-olds, and especially Jalam Akeem."

"The trail across the top (of Ptarmigan Mountain) seemed a meager eighteen inches wide with steep drop-offs on either side. Room enough to walk single file, certainly not the place for a misstep. ...Suddenly Cole yelled "Horse down! Horse down!"

"That evening, just in case the bear tracked us and came into camp, we hung the food containers high and between trees. We moved our personal tents into a circle far away from the cook tent and built a large fire in the center of our circle with a supply of logs stored nearby. Jack warned us to have NO food in our tents, and to keep the flaps zipped and stay inside - no matter what...
...I awoke to crashing and banging from the direction of the cook tent. "Oh no," I said, "...the bear's in camp!"
