Newbrassky

[Trinity]

Texas Pete has always been made in Winston-Salem, just a few miles down the road.  The company was founded by a group of brothers as a BBQ sauce.  The brothers initially all agreed that the name should be "Mexican Joe", but later decided that the name should sound more American so they chose "Texas" and their brother Harold's nickname.  Can you guess what this was?

[Leo Tanner]

Good thing his nick name wasn't Stumpy er Butthead er somethin like that.  Things coulda gone poorly fer them boys.

[Texas Lawdog]

Trinity, I have h friend that is from China Grove, NC, which is near Kannapolis. He goes home to visit his folks and he always brings back a supply of Cheerwine and Texas Pete.

[Sod Buster]

Sod Buster rides quietly over to the Ranch with No Name and tiptoes up the stairs to the cupola where he lights a candle for the FFG.  and rides quietly back to his Soddy.

Sod Buster turns in for the night and says a prayer that God will watch over all of his pards here in the Great Plains of Nebrassky.

[Leo Tanner]

God Bless SB. 

[Ozark Tracker]

as the boys at the Ranch begin to stir,  they notice the coal bin is filled to overflowin, so a little extry is added to the stove fer all the cookin that'll take palce today.

[Texas Lawdog]

It's time to get those buttermilk biscuits in the oven. Make sure there's enough butter churned and the milk is good and cold.  Put the second cawfee pot on and go out to the smokehouse for some bacon and ham. Go by the henhouse and gather some eggs.  Christmas Day breakfast at the Ranch with no Name is shaping up nicely. A Merry Christmas to every one at Cas City!

[Leo Tanner]

Leo has managed to ride his Lumpy in a wide sweeping circle and comes upon the RWNN just as dawn breaks Christmas Morning.
    "Guess I am home fer the holly-daze".

[Texas Lawdog]

Just unsaddle Lumpy and put him in the corral.  There's hay, grain, and plenty of water.

[Silver Creek Slim]

Slim goes to the cupola and watches the flame of the candle. 

[Texas Lawdog]

As Slim looks at the flames, he remembers past Christmases, and dreams of Christmases to come.

[Silver Creek Slim]

Slim goes to his room and puts on the shirt that the FFG gave him a few years ago.

[Trinity]

Trinity digs out his cardboard-stiff trousers and stands them in the corner of her room.

[Delmonico]

Delmonico looks around the ranch house, sees nothing going on that needs his attention.  He leaves a note on the dining room table, "I'm going to Omaha for supplies, see you in a few days."

He saddles Reuben and heads to Dunning and the CB&Q depot.

[Silver Creek Slim]

Slim stokes the fire.

[Leo Tanner]

Leo brushes down Lumpy.

[Sod Buster]

Sod Buster checks his plow and harnesses for the mules in anticipation of the spring planting season.

[Ozark Tracker]

Sod Buster remembers back to last Springs  Harvest and looks forward to this years crops.

[Trinity]

Trinity goes over to make sure that the stranger is planting corn.  Trinity has an extra large order to fill this year.

[Lucky Irish Tom]

Irish puts on a pot of coffee and starts cleaning things up, knowing Del will want a clean kitchen when he returns.
