The Buckley Sisters






I just LOVE these ladies! Look at them, smiling (well, sort of) in their fancy scarves and ties. I've been saving this postcard until now, when I am finally ready to make a painting/collage to honor them. Their names were Mabel, May and Myrtle. They were known throughout Montana as the "Red Yearlings" because of their red-blond hair and horsemanship. They were so accomplished that they were sought for hire by the Wild West shows, which they declined. I wanna be a cowgirl.

YEE HAW!

We could help you out here in Amarillo, Texas. We also have the National Quarter Horse Headquarters/Museum here. And if you want steak, check out the Big Texan Restaurant in a search. Can't wait to see the collage!
