The Stranger on the Road
The road from Tenacity to Progress was a flat, barren thing, unspooling across miles and miles of cactus country from one edge of the sky to the other—but that pinched end of packed dirt in the distance never seemed to get any closer. The cowboy stared down it dutifully. He had enough water to get him to town, and enough cattle to earn his employer a tidy sum at market , all he had to do was make it there with himself and the herd in one piece. Simple enough. If the cows saw any trace of apprehension, they did him the good grace of not acknowledging it. For that, he was grateful.
