But alas the tale must end as I have fallen in love with Miss Kitty and will be staying in the Long Branch buying beers and staring into Miss Kitty's eyes the rest of tonight. It was a long hard ride today fellas.
And Miss Kitty is not easily left or forgotten about when compared to cactus on the trail.
NEWLY! A beer for all my friends. Round for the house! And another for my man garce.
I think I bit off more than I can chew with this thread LOL
So instead you all invited to pull up a spot at the bar and maybe I can find some more pics of Miss Kitty.
