He’s been an underwater welder, a Voc-Tech teacher; he’s worked the oilfields, he’s been a mechanic, he’s operated heavy equipmentand is still willing to try anything once. His first loves are still cowboying, horses, and (of course) women.
This book was written while Roy worked on ranches across this great land and are based on his own experiences from that life.
