This photo is Tige Reinhold on the Lonetree Ranch around 60 years ago. I love the bright color of this image taken from a 35 mm color slide. The horse's name is Swift. Pretty typical of the saddle horse of that day. Dad broke a lot of horses. Several of the Reinhold brothers had quite the reputations with horses. Except Carl, the oldest son of Emanuel and Hazel Reinhold, (my uncle) He told me that he lost his love for riding because in those early days there were no fences and when it was time to get the milch cows in...He would at times ride nearly to Elk Creek at times. That was six miles away... :) Carl, Uncle Dick, as I knew him was known to be quite a story teller. :) Earl (Tom) and my Dad (Tige) were probably the cowboys. To make a good horse...you rode. "Wet saddle blankets make good horses," Dad would say.
