Great find Jeff! Well, we have the "naked cowboy" in Times Square, but I don't think that counts as a "real cowboy" lol! #9316301Jack Gaskin March 25, 2011
PERFECT EXAMPLE of WHY we should drive w/a camera on the passengers seat at all times..Courtenay Vanderbilt March 25, 2011

Yep, TX is full of 'em...live here long enough and the local flavor just seeps into your very bones and before you know it, you're "talking the talk and walking the walk"! Super capture and a great find, Jeff - I just bet, he's the REAL thing! #9317225Carol L. Fowler March 25, 2011

If he's a REAL Cowboy, ... why isn't he riding a horse?! This looks like a truck to me! LOL! :D Awesome colour, clarity, reflections and background (or is that foreground?) in this fabulous capture, Jeff! Excellent work! :) #9317395Marijana Fajgl March 25, 2011

Great catch, Jeff, perfectly captured! #9317735Carolyn J. Connolly March 25, 2011
What a wonderful find and capture here, Jeff!! :o) I, too, was wondering about what happened to his original tailboard - lol!! At least this one serves the purpose...and, as Danny H said, it can also double as a picnic table!! ;o) #9317756Jeff Robinson March 26, 2011

Classic Texas, Jeff. Just got to love this one. #9322778Jeff Robinson March 28, 2011
Thank you Doc!! #9322856Rona L. Schwarz March 28, 2011
I agree with Michelle - this would look great on a Texas travel brochure, Jeff! I've never met a real cowboy, but looks can be deceiving - my husband drives a pickup, but he also carries a purse (better known as a man's bag)! He is very fond of his truck, and named her 'Lucille'! #9323150Jeff Robinson March 29, 2011
Thank You Rona! Jeff #9324663Phyllis H. Burchett March 29, 2011
