There are opportunities everyday to be kind.

What a better way to start heading west, and see the interior of Texas, than to spend the night on a Texas Ranch. Our stay for tonight was with Gus & Gail at their Regenerative Ranch. This was another Harvest Host spot.
Here we spent time learning about regenerative ranching, a tour of the ranch and we got to meet some of the animals. I loved Cinnamon! (long horn cow), and June Bug the dog! (She wanted to come with us). I thought Curly (a curly haired horse) was a unique and beautiful! We fed the donkeys and horses graham crackers. (There goes the smores).
All of their horses and donkeys were rescue animals. It is so hard to believe that someone could abuse these magnificent animals. Thank goodness for people like Gus and Gail for rescuing them.
The big, dark Texas sky at night was beautiful and the area was quiet and peaceful. Best Sleep Ever! This experience was one of highlights of our trip so far. It has restored our faith in the goodness and kindness of people. If we come back this way, we would definitely love to stay again.
Interestingly enough Gail was wearing a Nova Scotia tartan scarf. Apparently, they visited Nova Scotia in their motorhome a few years ago and love the Maritimes and the Maritimers! Gail said we were the friendliest people they have ever met. We told them if they ever come back our way, they have to look us up!
