| Description | Wendell Roundy, a lifelong cowboy from Boulder, Utah, recounts his experiences growing up on a ranch and working with cattle. He shares stories about his saddles, including a harrowing accident involving a "green broke" horse, and his participation in local Fourth of July rodeos, emphasizing the community spirit and the mentorship he received from older cowboys like Carter Ormond and Mac LeFevre. Roundy highlights the importance of patience in cattle handling, the invaluable role of well-trained cattle dogs, and his return to the ranching life after some personal challenges, working for Dell LeFevre and continuing to apply the wisdom he gained from his predecessors. |
