The Thorington Ride

Upon a ridge I saw the riders coming hard They were mostly out of towners But i knew they would go far They only rested for a moment High up on that ledge Beheld a setting majesty As only could compare The ranch lit up the shadows long The riders all so tall A scorching ball of fizzling light Descending on the plain Ma got on and showed them all There’s really nothing to it The lieutenant in his glory It was not this way at all Their lovely brat so proudly sat Upon that prancing steed You think she’d been there all along A natural indeed The food was fine and the people great The company superb As ever at the greatest place Historic Reesor Ranch www.reesorranch.com
