Wild West..........

[bimmer-e30]

How many of you would love to spend a week in the wild west, rob a bank or just round up cattle or horses,just being a cowboy/girl for the week?

If I want to meet outlaws and get shot at I could always move back to St Marys...

Stake a few claims to exotic mineral rights, and definitely one to Area 51

The reason im asking is my hubby wants to move to the usa,i will have nothing to do when there,but if i could open a ranch, where you spend a week as a cowboy/girl the old fastion (wild west way) would anyone want to come there?

To what you are referring is called a "Dude Ranch" and there are already quite a few spread all over the western mountain states, but I'm sure there is room for a few more.

:Thumbup: Done it. A week out in New Mexico on and off a muckle big horse, still 19th century cowboy outlaw country; better than Arizona which is contemporary cattle cowboy country. Yeeharr!

I haven't seen a cow since I came to Arizona almost 2 years now, lots of cotton though.

I know thought of that,but it will be the spiders that get me though.

Nope, the only women in the Wild West were the plump middle aged ones that came down the staircase halfway through a bar-room brawl. Plus, you get shot at and sinister geezers in black keep coming in and killing everybody.

I'll be a Victorian industrialist anyday

[bimmer-e30]

Yeah but this would be roll play, yes you would get shot at(with blanks),but what if you got to be the guy in black!

[rich 36]

no more fried beans for me though

Good idea. But even he didn't get the girls did he? They just ride off into a sunset, for some inexplicable reason.
