We take a look back at our August 2006 issue: “Yes there are still cowboys in this land. Cowboys who ride horses and round up cattle and drag calves to the branding fire, and rope cattle, and live in bunkhouses and appreciate and respect their horses and ride them off into the sunset. On a map of the United States, find the Nebraska ‘panhandle,’ look for the second tier of counties above the Colorado border and the third row from the Wyoming border. There, on the North Platte River, in Garden County, find Lisco, Nebraska. That’s the site of the Rush Creek Land and Livestock Company, its cowboys, and its Arabian horses.”
