Tragic story involving Mother Nature and cattle ranching in the Texas Panhandle.
Thought most of you would appreciate this read, especially brother Clyde and other farmers & ranchers

Texas Monthly is a great magazine. We have a subscription to it. They cover stuff like this, whooping cranes, TX music scene, etc.
Well rounded publication.

That is sad man. I carry a lighter with me wherever I go and I don't smoke. Sounds like they didn't even have time to start a fire and follow it.

Holy shite that was a tough read

Good Lord that was tough, biting my lip and wiping my eyes.

The Day the Fire Came is one of the most interesting, well written, gut wrenching stories I've ever read. Thanks for posting.

That was horrifically sad.

Anyone care to give cliffs of the story?
Posted on 8/5/17 at 7:14 pm to Got Blaze
That's such a sad story, and one of the worst ways I can think of to die.

I'll give Cliff's but it's worth reading. Such a sad story.
Cody (20 YO cowboy with a bright future in the business), his gf Sydney (23 year old nurse) and Sloan (Baylor grad from an old cattle family) put their lives in the line to save a herd of heifers and calves from a wildfire, but the wind trapped them.

I read that earlier this week and there were definitely tears shed. Incredibly well-written but such a tough read. The picture of Sloan with his daughter put me right over.

Tough to see good people taken like this.
