Creative Writing: Get Back Here You Stupid Cow
Get back here you stupid cow! Jess Lincoln just wasn't cut out for this! She's a city girl from New York, used to cafe lattes in the morning and swanky bar Manhattans at night. But here she was, running from her past and her ex-husband. So why did she run to a cattle ranch of all things? Did she think she could just throw on some pumps and walk out to milk the cows? Was there anyone out here that could help her?

Wyatt Wade knew his way around a ranch. His Bear Shifter Clan specialized in long distance travel of troubling species. Water buffalo, oxen and even flocks of ostrich: if it walked on this earth, they could herd it. But this fiery little city slicker that just moved into the ranch down the way was something else. She was all thorns

    Wyatt Earp Buffalo Hunting Essay

    Wyatt purchased one wagon, four animals for harness, and one for which he could ride. He brought along with him only one experienced skinner, who would also drive and cook, and Wyatt would participate in the skinning of the kill. Wyatt made an agreement with his skinner to split the profits of the hunt, with himself keeping the team and wagon afterwards. For his weapon he chose a shotgun which made him have to get closer to the heard than he would have to with a rifle, but allowed him to fire rapidly with no harm to the gun. He would set up an area, and shoot one buffalo at a time stopping when he shot all that he and his skinner could handle in one day, and before the heard got a scent of blood and break into a stampede. He would then work the heard away quietly by waving his coat and shouting, moving the heard in the direction that he wanted them to go. After the herd left the area, he and his skinner would work together to skin the kill for the day. Wyatt's lowest score for a single stand (he only did one stand a day) was eighteen buffalo and his highest twenty-seven, given each of them between twenty to thirty five dollars cash in hand each day. After checking tallies and the profits others ended with Wyatt's profits were much higher than the "old…

    Ranger Jones Makes The Cattle Baron Analysis

    Leader reported that “Ranger” Jones and his men were attacked at his ranch on July 30 on the Platte River, near Casper, Wyoming. The Indians had driven Jones and his men into a make shift dugout for two days and on August 1, Jones and his men made their way to John Iliff’s ranch which was about forty miles farther up the Platte River, were they were able to get rest, fresh horses and needed supplies before heading back. What is so ironic about the meeting of these to is that such a large and powerful cattle baron such as Iliff in the next sixteen years would have great conflict with ranchers such as Jones. Unknown assailants assassinated Ranger” Jones and fellow ranger John Tisdale, fifteen years later under accusations of rustling, just four months prior to the Johnson County invasion. It leads to early speculation why a cattle baron of Illiff’s stature and prestige allowed Jones to take refuge in his home if he there was speculation of cattle rustling over thievery of any sort. Even though Iliff would not live to see the invasion of Johnson County, the satire of his crossing paths with “Ranger” Jones makes the Cattle Baron story much more intriguing.…

    Hours passed in the tree stand and the forest had stayed silent. From far away, Will’s first sign of elk came. Bull elk use a loud call, a bugle, to ward off other bull elk and this is what Will heard. Across the canyon at least five bulls were bugling at each other, at this sound Will’s anticipation heightened because this meant the elk were moving. Goose bumps accompanied the chill he felt down his neck. Sitting up straight in his tree stand, Will notched and arrow into his…

    Characters In Lonesome Dove

    They were rich enough and had no real reason to embark on this knowingly difficult trek but they would be the first cattlemen to move themselves and their crew, the Hat Creek Cattle Company, to Montana and that alone was enough incentive for the two restless souls. They leave their quiet town of Lonesome Dove and there is much drama along the way; hard learned lessons, boundless love, and heartbreaking deaths. Augustus, “Gus”, McCrae is a man who has a personality that you cannot help but fall in love with. He lives his every day to the fullest, never taking anything too seriously. He is full of wit and charm and knows no stranger.…

    Creative Writing: No Ordinary Meatballs

    We have explored a variety of writing styles with food as the central theme throughout. My first essay was an ode to steak, which took you through all the senses from the hint of smell to the first savory bite. The second essay was a deconstruction of meatballs and how my first true cooking experience came about. Next was an essay on the adventures of Chinese cuisine and the garlic phenomenon. The last essay was to capture and critique a moment shared with lobster. I am proud of all my essays. If I must choose a favorite; then I select “No Ordinary Meatballs”. The essays on steak, Chinese cuisine, and lobster were all experience-based accounts. These were unique accounts, which were sought out, in one form or another. However, my meatballs…

    Creative Writing: America Great Again

    How could he just treat us all like we were cattle as if it was nothing? The speedometer crept up to 60 miles per hour. Didn’t he care that people everywhere were starving? How could he do this? When he was elected he promised that he would Make America Great Again. 70 miles per hour. I had to get to the rally. We needed change, we could be that change. 80 miles per hour. My thoughts were interrupted as my eyes caught the reflecting glow of red and blue lights paint the night sky behind me. Crap. I pulled over and turned off the car, ready to feed the officer behind me a great line about how my grandmother was on her death bed and wanted me and only me to be at her side. My eyes shifted and glanced to the side mirror, the officer straightened out his already tucked in uniform and smoothed his hands over his hair as he made his way from his cruiser. Great, I thought. I wonder how many reprimands this stiff is gonna write me up for. My record already had 14 points on it for picketing, 6 more and I’d be in real trouble. He knocked on the window…

    Fighting temptation describes a battle that is as much spiritual as it is emotional or physical. To be tempted is not a sin. Everyone is tempted and at different levels. Even Jesus was tempted! Temptation happens when the opportunity is presented to do what we know is wrong, whether against God, ourselves, or others. Being tempted is not wrong - it's the decision to do wrong and the corresponding action that follows.…

    Landscape Metaphors from One Night the Moon

    “They make their campfires down by the creek. I wouldn’t go down there at night – I certainly know I’m not welcome” growled the laconic, gruff station owner that we’d hired to take us to the heart of cattle country. His hand was large and scarred, clearly used to the handling of big animals out here, building stock fences and no doubt slaughtering them to put food on the table for his family.…

    Creative Writing: The Fried Chicken Monster

    It was 1738 in Richlands, North Carolina. The Wind blew softly and the leaves fell one by one. Crunch! Crunch! POW! I hear as people jump and step in piles and piles of leaves. Having a joyful and playful time but little do they know two weeks from today there will be no more playing, and jumping in piles of leaves because the Fried Chicken Monster (F.C.M) was coming back into town. The Fried Chicken Monster or as my family calls him (F.C.M) has been missing in action for about eight years now. F.C.M came to town and destroyed people’s life when I was about six years old. I’m fourteen now so he’s been gone for a little while. F.C.M and my dad have previous history.…
