The Mad Russian & The Rurales at Cananea, Mexico

June 25, 2019
   Stuart Rosebrook is in the house and he has been going through our photo files. He's found a couple dillies, including this stunner:

and his Sonoran Rurales

   Looking at the top photo with the naked eye makes it appear there are several boys with the law enforcement group, but in the blow-up you can see they are merely small vaqueros on small horses.

"Courage is knowing it might hurt and saddling up anyway. Stupidity is the same thing. This is why life is so hard."
