Description
This is my dad and his Collie in 1912 or 1913 in the hiils above Fresno, CA. at Academy. My Dad was a Rancher (he said it was the last thing he wanted to be, when he was younger). He loved all of his animals and was so very good with them. He even had a pet Brahman steer who waited at the fence for him. We raised some crops and we raised white faced Herferds. My sister and I were the cowgirls when it became roundup time. At Leisure, we rode in Parades and my Welch Cutting Pony and I won the barrel racing.

Thank you, Mohammad. I used to drive the pick-up, at the age of 12, while my dad threw the hay, out, from the back, to the cattle. He had a lot of faith in me. Smiles!
