Cowboy Heros

Cowboy Bar - New Years Eve (2015) - A Special Couple's First Dance Together

"During our New Years Eve at Jackson Hole’s famous “Cowboy Bar,” Sergeant Benjamin Cooper, who had been on military duty previously, was able to fulfill a wish to have his first dance with his wife, Diana, in her favorite destination town. The Cowboy Bar dedicated time for "Candy Brooks & Beyond Control" to sing a slow dance song for them. It was a wonderful moment for all of us to share with them, and we thank Sergeant Cooper for his service to this great nation of ours, and we also thank all of the military families who support our brave and dedicated troops."!

a Cowboy Valentine-She Opened My Eyes - - What A Surprise

Thought I knew
Where this was a goin'
Sure read the signs wrong
She was a showin'

All I could see
Was her blue eyes a blinkin'
'Than' I started to fall in love
What was I a thinkin'

My horse has never
Thrown me so hard
I 'spected us to be forever
'Than' she done turned her last card

Cashed in stood up and
Just walked away
Leaving me holding an empty bag
Not knowing what to say

I still have my horse
Of course
But only half less
Of the mess she left

I'm a fan of the western lore. Been reading paper back westerns since I was twelve years old. All my cowboys have been heroes save a few.
 
William S Hart started it all. He had his pinto Fritz, right back in the 1910s, so it’s a long tradition.

They both aged, sadly
 
Rose,
Very interesting read, I enjoyed that.Thank you for posting. My favorite actor of that series was Ken Curtis, Festus. Unfortunately, I did not see his name or character mentioned in that article or his predecessor "Chester". Perhaps I just Missed it.
