Buck is a cowboy. He lives on a ranch in Montana with his horse Buckaroo. The
ranch has cows, goats, horses, and chickens. Buck takes care of the cows on the ranch.
He feeds them, rounds them up, brands them, and keeps them safe from wild animals. He
also mends broken fences and collects firewood. Buck works ten hours a day, six days a
week. His only day off is Sunday. On Sunday evenings, all the ranch workers eat a big
dinner together. After dinner, they sit around the campfire while Buck plays his guitar.
They sing cowboy songs until their voices are hoarse.
