Ranch Ties

There are bonds between creatures, bonds between men, and bonds between creatures and men.  There are old ties and new ties, close ties and loose ties, and here are a few ties captured on film.
                                                       

Enjoy a few examples of "ranch ties".

Tyler Hunewill Elliott and Rhiannon Hunewill Wright enjoy a partner lope thru the summer meadows.

Ted Holloway and "Tres" the Corgi/Queensland cross, enjoy a companionable ride on the wagon.

"Calliope" the cat insists that Betsy is her personal transporter.

Jon Elliott and Dave Stamey share bonds of music, humor, and history.  Some say there is even a physical resemblance... you decide.

Ice skating on the pond at the winter ranch.  The conga line consists of (L to R) Aspen, Rhiannon, Ashley, Dalton, & Tyler.  Nice jacket Dalton.

Billy Bob Tennison holding Rhiannon Wright when she was very young.  Though he is no longer with us, his wisdom, wit, and humor linger on. 

Jon Elliott rubs and strokes a calf after tagging it, so it remembers human contact in a good way.
