A single trail ride, cowboy ranch or Boot Hill replica isn't going to work. Especially at this point in time. We need a serious commitment by all those concerned. The county, the city and the people. Especially the people.

We're standing around in a rotting city and all we can do is complain about the stink.
Well said Detector, well said.............
