On the last day of his working ranch vacation, Karl gets to see some other areas of the ranch, take some photos, and has lunch before heading home.

Cowboy Karl Riding Horseback On His Cattle Herding Vacation
Doug took me photo shooting on the diesel-powered four wheeler. Got some good landscape shots. Got a shot of a mule deer standing on a ridge across a canyon. Got a shot of a rattlesnake slithering across the dirt road into the rocks. We tossed pebbles at the snake and he didn’t coil up or anything. Guess he had better things to do.
Had lunch at Jim and Clarice’s straw built house on Anchor Ranch. Jim made an announcement and gave me a hand-written note that said:
CERTIFICATION:
KARL LENTINI
LONGHORN STEER
TOP HANDAttached to the note was a pair of beige work gloves, much more appropriate than the bicycle gloves I wore while riding. The gift was generous and touching, and a nice way to mark the last day of my visit to Double Circle Ranch.

Thanks for publishing this amazing log of our son’s stay with you. Certainly would recommend it to others. Too bad we are too old for such an adventure.
You never get too old for an adventure. You should come on out to Double Circle Ranch. There is lots to see even if you don’t want to gather Texas Longhorns and ride the range. Besides- I am old enough to be Karl’s mother so we may be the same age. I do this everyday– do pick broke horses to ride now a days though.
Maybe we will see you here next summer.
