The saddest misconception of cowboys and people who choose to work hard for a living is that they're dumb uneducated hateful racist people and that almost always seems to be the furthest from the truth. I live in the northeast and I witnessed people talk that way about farmers my whole life. It's sad cause it looks like a very gratifying life, hard but beautiful. We never know any people till we walk a mile in their shoes and share a dinner table. Thank you Peter for these videos that give me hope in a world obsessed with identity and splintering us apart based on those identities. Your videos make me smile and remind me that everyone deserves the time for understanding cause you will find the true beauty hidden in mankind.

As an Arab Bedouin watching this right now, from somewhere in the Arabian Desert, not far from the Empty Quarter, grazing with my herd of 65 camels. This was truly a treat. I’d love to visit America just to get to ride with cowboys, and get a feel for mustangs and stallions, be they in Texas or Montana. I’d love to own a cattle ranch one day as well. I bet they’d love to ride some Arabian horses too. I know perfectly well, that feeling of wanting to escape the city. I work in downtown Abu Dhabi, my hometown. I was born and raised here. But as soon as I get the chance, sometimes during the workweek, after work, I’d go to the outskirts of the city, to be able to be near to the desert as much as I can. It’s my much-needed breath of fresh air I guess. So, given that yesterday was the last day of work, before a long 4-day Eid break. I immediately went for the Western Region, getting 260 km away from my office lol. Thank you for this Peter, and God bless those amazingly awesome people. I hope they get to keep the ranch forever. Since 1912, wow! That was the same year titanic sunk, 110 years ago!

Not a for sale sign in sight, but they think you should sell because they want. It becomes very nerve wracking. I'm at the point of putting up a sign that reads "NOTHING ON THIS PROPERTY IS FOR SALE. DON'T EVEN BOTHER TO ASK. JUST GO AWAY."

Reminds me of a story my dad told me about my granddaddy. Papa was a WWII veteran and raised 6 kids after the war. He worked on a towboat, raised a garden,hauled lime, and fixed cars for people. He had several old cars sitting on the property. One time a guy pulled up in the driveway and asked if the cars were for sale. Papa gruffly said “By God do you see a damn for sale sign?!” And probably exchanged a few more pleasantries as he escorted the man back to his vehicle. My dad told me that he never understood why Papa acted that way until he got older. The cars weren’t for sale. He worked hard to get them running and to use them to hunt, farm, or for spare parts.

Great episode. People will never truly understand how dedicated you have to be to something like this. People often talk about and refer to athletes when speaking about dedication. Athletes have off seasons, athletes retire at relatively young ages, athletes can choose to take a few days off if needed. This life you do it from sun up to sun down, from adolescent till you're so old you cant walk, there is no season its year round, rain or shine, when the moneys good and when the moneys bad, it is truly an entire life of dedication and commitment. The worst part of it all is that no matter how hard or how well you farm and produce the people in the cities and states you're producing for will never acknowledge you appreciate the fact that you produced something they will then put in their stomachs.

My grandparents and my mom as well as myself grew up on what used to be the Hunt/Cartwright ranch in Forney Texas and after my granddaddy had a stroke and couldn't manage the ranch anymore it eventually got sold off and now it's a big housing development called Windmill Farms and it completely and totally doesn't even look like the same place anymore. And it breaks my heart. But life changes all the time and we go on. But I was blessed to live that kind of life for over half my years alive. They didn't go to the grocery store they grew and produced everything we ate. I eventually got my own little farm in east Texas and then became a blacksmith and custom knife maker and after a few years I sold everything and moved to the mountains of northern New Mexico where my family and I live now and we have a small farm that we raise all kinds of animals and we have a nice garden and I do my steel work and we love it. I understand this type of lifestyle and it's really sad just how disconnected people are from what is truly important to life. That old man is right when he says if it wasn't for agriculture no one would eat. I don't know I could go on forever talking about stuff like this but I won't. I do think it would do every body good to go and spend a week working on a ranch and they'd have a completely different state of mind about life. I guess that could be said about a lot of things though.

Being a 65 yr old Texas gal that was raised on cattle ranching in 60's and 70's. Dad was working cattle on horseback when he suffered final heart attack over 20 yrs. ago. Just the way he would have wanted. Born in the 30's....raised on horses. Said you knew you were good when you can mount up with a watermelon under each arm...lol....no saddle...just reins. We raised black Angus with white face Herefords. Had few horses but did some work on foot (close to corral). Can still taste that dust. Mom worked at home...and I do mean "worked". Nobody ever touched the taste of her "Angel bisquits" or fried chicken. Sewed my wedding dress in "75" as well as my 2 bridesmaids dresses. Took a cake decorating class and I still brag with pictures. At 86 .....she remembers it all. Small country church wedding...complete with folks I'd known most of my 18 yrs. of life. A lifestyle I'm proud to acknowledge. Glad to see it's still going.

I am from NYC & since I moved to this hell hole I always hated it, the skies are grey, the stars are to never be seen, the air is impure, the people are rude, lack values and morals amongst many other things! I have always felt out of place like I belong somewhere else where the skies are as blue as the ocean and where I could see the horizon from every corner where my eyes can take me! Hopefully one day I will move in a quiet place & embrace the way to connecting back with nature ☺️

Hard work, simple life, real life. I have never felt more alive than here. Exactly what I have always wanted deep in my soul but did not know what it was until I found it here in Texas. My second home :-) I admire all ranchers and farmers out there. One of the best people! You did an outstanding job here, Peter.

Excellent video, Peter! Very much looking forward to part 2. I moved up into Wisconsin for a few years for solitude and to relax my brain, and it did me well. I worked on a dairy farm for awhile and lived on their land in a little house just like the one in the video. This is hard work but one that makes you feel a sense of pride. Agriculture is the backbone of every Nation..without farming/ranching there would be nothing. I say this about truckers too, they keep America moving. Every day they'd pull into the farm and pump all the milk into their trailers and haul it away. The guy I worked for sold his milk to Land O' Lakes for 25cents per liquid pound. Its a helluva job and is literally backbreaking and very tiresome, you work from 3:30am til about 11am and take a small break and then right back at it at 2/3pm for the second milking and work til 8pm. This is 7 days per week, 365 days per year with no days off(for the owner). Its a way of life that spans over generations. Also, I can attest to the rotten Government that buts in your business and forces you to comply with their assanine regulations and to spray certain chemicals on YOUR land and on YOUR crops, etc.. its downright despicable how much the Government puts their sticky fingers into your family's business and in your pocket.

I reaIIy enjoyed this interview with Texas ranchers Dawn, Chris, and their 4-Iegged ranch hand, Jasper. As you taIk with them, the rugged Iandscape, 06 ranch buiIdings, and critters enhanced their personaI stories that anchors the facts that they and their famiIy have been there for generations, and that adapting to change has heIped them survive. These are foIks who Iive and waIk their faith without having the need to say a word about it. It is a quiet strength woven throughout their story that I found inspiring. Sharing famiIy history is important to today's generation, as it refIects the tapestry of AMERICA, that we are as strong as the PeopIe we are around. You can bet there were no weak pioneers settIing Texas. No one can get through these harsh changes and conditions aIone....we need one another and we get through it TOGETHER, God WiIIing.

I have been going out to the Davis Mountains since 1984 for Astronomy Star Parties and love it out there. It has some of the darkest skies in the US. Have a cousin that lives just outside of Alpine, i bet not too far from this ranch. 2011 saw devastating fires that burned up the countryside for many miles. Many animals died from the fire and drought. The antelope got wiped out and the state has been restocking with antelopes from the Amarillo area in the panhandle. I hope the rancher never sells out. Development wouldn't be good for the area and the dark skies. Keep Big Bend area wild! You can tell what kind of people they are by the way their animals interact with them. Loving animals are not attracted to mean people but, good loving people.
