THE RANCHLANDS REVIEW

Lines

EDITION #03

Edition #03 follows the lines that shape life on and beyond the ranch: the horizon we steer by, the trails cattle and foxes wear into the ground, and the old, agricultural waterways that people have built their lives around. The writers trace how these paths cross and double back, how a single hide can be followed from birth to burial, and how the routes we choose so often lead us back to where we started.
