P9300007.JPG (186785 bytes)    Roy 's been riding good foundation bred horses for over 50 years - well, that was when he turned 20 (in 1950) and was out on his own.  He rode the great horse Buttermilk to school when he was a kid and his Dad sold Buttermilk to Glen Randall for Dale Evans.  

Roy finally got to fulfill his dream of owning a John Red mare when the Cowan boys (they're boys to a guy Roy's age!) called and wanted to sell some horses after Pat Cowan's tragic death.  Pat and Roy had been friends for years.  The last time Roy was at the Cowan ranch before Pat died, Roy asked Pat to show him the John Red mares Pat had.  Pat refused, stating that they had always been good friends and there was no use in ruining that by looking at mares he wasn't going to sell.  

Anyway - Roy bought Miss 3 John from the boys and we were fortunate to get this great buckskin stud colt out of her.  Roy named him Pat Cowan  in honor of the great friend and horseman, Mr. Pat Cowan.  We sold Pat Cowan January 29, 2005 at the Black Hills Stock Show Sale to Shawn & Leslie Merrill - the Merrill Ranch in South Dakota.  pattyroy.JPG (377934 bytes) 

Now we run a few mares and breed some outside mares.  We also buy and sell good riding horses that cowboys and cowgirls around Nebraska 's  sandhills and the rest of the U.S., Mexico, and Canada use to rope, rodeo, run barrels, ranch on and some folks just feed, pet and look at them.  Roy had a defibrillator put in the end of May 2007 - kick starts his heart.  Sure has made him feel better.

Marilyn tries to keep up with Roy and Ty along with teaching school in Ogallala , Nebraska.  I'm thinking of bubble wrap as I seem to be accident prone the last 18 months!  January of 2007 a broken/smashed/destroyed ankle/leg going out to get firewood, September 2008 2 broken vertebraes in my neck, May 2009 torn ACL.  So, my summer of 2009 was not what I had planned, and I was grateful we had decided to skip the production sale at the ranch this year - I was tied to the ice machine until surgery the middle of July - I have promised myself to get more physically fit, and to slow down - I sure have learned not to take your health or ability to move around for granted!   PICT0051.JPG (548734 bytes)  Grandpa Lew, Marlene, Bill & Ty

MOM-TY-SHELLEY.jpg (1687673 bytes)Ty graduated from Ogallala High School in 2005-06 and went to Marshall, Missouri - Missouri Valley College.  She received a nice scholarship for academics and rodeo & has enjoyed expanding her travels - like really expanding the miles they traveled to college rodeo! 400 miles to the closest one, and over 1000 miles to a couple in Alabama.   http://www.moval.edu/   ty's vest.jpg (370751 bytes)  Her good barrel horse got crippled the weekend before she left for school, so she was down to 2 back-ups.    She fell off a horse, got stepped on, and broke a couple bones in her foot the first of March 2007 - so she was out for the 2007 spring rodeos.  July 5, 2007 she got kicked and tore the MCL in her left leg - so then she had a hip to ankle brace - 

In May 2008 she decided to go to Chadron State College in Chadron, Nebraska for her last 2 years of college (at least her last 2 years before we hope she is gainfully employed!  She keeps talking graduate school).  Both of her back-up horses  came up with issues (one with barbed wire-hope that is not career ending!), so she is seasoning a mare we raised by Pat Cowan.  She's enjoyed rodeoing in the Central Rocky Mountain Region and we enjoy having her closer to home - even  though she doesn't come home much more often - she did make it Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter which she didn't from Missouri. She  enjoys school and activities there, but is quickly following in her Dad's boots with her interest in foundation horses.    Ty continues to compete in barrel races around the country and is making some nice horses.TY & 4 HORSES.jpg (318630 bytes)  ty 16 & dr license 555.jpg (115156 bytes)  TY&CHIEFWORLD.jpg (45355 bytes) We're so proud of her accomplishments both in and out of the horse world. She loves her Miniature & Toy Australian Shepherd dogs, and continues to raise pups - with Mom & Dad's labor when she's at school - to help pay her way down the road.ty and dogs.jpg (323054 bytes)  ty gus.jpg (351115 bytes)  ty pat snow.jpg (230314 bytes) 

Stop in and talk horses anytime - coffeepot's almost always on or ready to be put on again!
