We met Jim at the Gibbon, NE American Legion lunch near the Rowe Sanctuary. They provided a lunch of pulled pork sandwiches, vegetable soup, cookies, chips, and beverages. The whole meal even came with a free Gibbon American Legion insulated mug.
The best part of the whole thing, other than the great homemade food, was our chat with Jim. He told us he is part Cree, Seminole, and I forget what 3rd tribe. He talked about his family history. He has driven truck to 49 states and Canada, and is currently a cattle wrangler. We even got to see a whole field of calves he assisted in the births of over the last year. He has a handshake grip like you wouldn't believe, and was absolutely delightful. Best of all, he told us he is a cowboy model who has been photographed for National Geographic and several other magazines. Once I heard that, I had to give him the opportunity to be photographed for my blog, and he said I made his day. Well, Jim, you made my day too!
Such a cool picture! His clothes are so colorful and full of character. You have a good eye for taking pics.
ReplyDeleteDitto what Kyle and Jessica said! You have a way with picking subjects and capturing their character. He sounds like a cool guy!
