They were all good hands, the kind of cowboys-or buckaroos-that
could work on any cow outfit. They didn't all arrive together,
they just sorta drifted in, one at a time.
Tom hired them on in January to help with the calving, even
though it was early. There wasn't much riding to do, just go
through the cattle each day looking for something that might be
wrong. The cows weren't supposed to start calving until the
middle of February.
The ranch already had a cook, a grizzled old timer. He was a
pretty good cook and quite proud of his sourdough bread and
biscuits. He talked a lot, mostly to the items he was cooking
up.
The most surprising hand to show up was of the female
persuasion. Michelle, nicknamed Mike, said, "I have my own
bedroll and my own tent. I can ride as good as any man and can
rope better than most. I know cattle and horses, being raised on
a ranch."
When Mike had finished telling Tom about herself, he said, "I
guess we could give you a try. I don't know how the other hands
will react to havin' a woman in camp. But we'll give you a try.
If you work out, you've got a job. If not, I'll bring you
back.
