Wow snakes and gaters. Now that's the life for a kid. I was fortunate enough to be able to spend summers away. Either at the ocean or the desert. The wide open skies always appealed to me. One of my first loves of Texas was it's wide open skies, where you can see both ends of a northern!
Sing along now, Oh give me land lots of land under stary skies above. Don't fence me in... :-)
Oh, goody goody goody!
Now you've done it...moved us from campfire stories to sing-alongs..:))
Well, while you ride that land, you can sing a song from 1942 (Music-Joseph Lilley Lyrics-Ranke Loesser) - - Paulette Goddard introduced it in her movie The Forest Rangers....
I've got spurs that jingle jangle jingle
As I go riding merrily along
And they sing, "oh ain't you glad you're single
And that song ain't so very far from wrong
Bet TexasCowboy remembers her from later films - -
