I think we’re going the wrong way, Gizmo…
The Long Ride, 1974
The start, Ventura, Calif. 
Another day in the saddle
A dry camp. 
I staked Gizmo by his front foot. 
German cavalry saddle with britchen
Gizmo with the German cavalry saddle and rig
The road out of Nashville
On the trail in Arkansas
Wild horses, Painted Desert
These Tony Lamas have seen better days
Rollin’ across the great prairies
My cooking gear and other stuff
Stopping for a news interview
No bridle, just a halter
With my Canadian saddle
Buckling a spur strap
Selfies were a lot harder in those days
I ate every meal out of this little pan. 
Heading down a backroad
Staking Gizmo out by his front foot. 
Stopping for a rest
Leupp Road bridge, Painted Desert, Navajo Reservation
Another news interview
The old Government Road, Mojave Desert
Stopping to talk along the way
A camp in the Painted Desert
Gizmo taking it easy
Wild burros, Arizona high desert
This critter was good for a couple of meals
