Sheep Trailing In the Valley

Yep! If you were to travel the "Buck" (521 hwy) highway this week, this is what you might encounter. Herds of these woolly little creatures trailing down from their Summer homes in the higher elevations of the San Juan mountains -- into their winter homes in the valley of southwest Colorado.

Oh yeah, I remember Mr. Davidson. Was my history teacher one year. I always thought the "stit" was short for "still yet". Thanks for the memories.

The 101 Ranch, Murch & Smith

~~ submitted by Roy Kendrick ~~
(photo to the left is George Murch, Mike Sokoll & Poncho.) -- I made a very BIG mistake last week when I stated that the 101 Ranch had 101 acres. I meant to say 101,000 acres. At one time it covered more than 110,000 acres. The main headquarters was at Bliss, Oklahoma; now known as Marland, named for E.W.Marland the founder of the Marland Oil Company which bought the Continental Oil Company located at Orem, Utah and moved it to Ponca City (Oklahoma) where it became known as Conoco (now Conoco-Phillips after they acquired Phillips 66 of Bartlesville, Ok.). The main headquarters is now in Houston.
