Lottie Evans Woods was born in 1917 into a ranching family in far west Texas. Living far from any towns, or even neighbors, she learned self-reliance and problem-solving at an early age. These skills have served her well throughout her life as a partner to her rancher husband, a mother of five children, and an avid quilter, seamstress, gardener, observer of nature, and reader of great literature. She says she has never been bored in her life--she was either doing something or planning something to do. This book is a collection of stories from her life, the story of her grandparents' travel from Bend, Texas, to settle and ranch in the mountains of west Texas, stories her father wrote in the 1970's about his life, and lots of good lion and bear hunting stories from her husband and others who lived in the wild mountain country of Texas.
