Yes, folks ... BIG NEWS and GOOD NEWS. I am here through end of July. Then the Goodnight Historical Center takes over the store and land . A lot of our best products will be carried over into their store, thankfully. I am also building a new house on the North side of US 287 .... and (sssshhhhh) most likely will still have jerky, meat and a few other things available there. No; we are not "quitting" - HERD WEAR will continue (while I spend more time fishing and with family). Be sure you are on our email list and also on Buffalo Wool Co's list. Keep checking the blog posts on this website as well ... i will be adding info there about the events ... and they are lining up sweet! Come see us while we are here!

I couldn’t put this down

So several sleep deprived days later I finished it and now discover that there is a part 2 available....I can hardly wait for our upcoming snowstorm and my new book...
Dan O’Brien is a naturalist and expert on the care and treatment of the plains. this book tells us how he made the switch from cattle to buffalo on his South Dakota ranch. It is a story of chances, trial and error, and trying to make ends meet by just ranching and not having to suppliment his income with teaching etc jobs away from the ranch. It is the story of perseverance and a LOT of hard work but you have only to go to his website to see that it was all worth it. Dan is a wonderful writer who will certainly keep you turning the pages and asking for more.

Thank you for an excellent and informative review. Dan is just as good a person as he is a writer ... top of the heap. Glad you enjoyed the read (now go get some sleep!)
