It's interesting because the surroundings seem so dry and opaque, and then there's that red wagon that catches the eye.
I like history and trying to understand how life was back in those days has always been part of my mind. Is there any historical explanation as to why that farm stopped? Or they are still working with cattle.
They actually are still doing cattle. I am not sure how they are transporting, but it has been interesting to see how ranches have changed over time. There is a museum in Fort Worth in the Stockyard district that is all about ranch life. We were goi g to explore at one poi t, but had been distracted so we never got around to it whe we were there.
Oh, those lifestyles are really interesting. My grandfather used to be a 'cowboy', or the brazilian version of it haha, back in the days. No roads nor trucks, all the cattle was transported on foot using horses on a several days trip. Back in those days the wool used to be a huge industry around here too, thousands of thousands of sheeps - now its all gone due to clothing industry.
That's why I like seeing places like the one you presented here, it shows how much the world around us changes with time.
Oh, if you are ever in Texas, the Dallas-Fort Worth area, you should chichek this place out... http://www.jcchisholmtrail.com/ It is just an amazing place!

Oh wow, but only if I can carry a Winchester on my bicycle! South of America fascinates me a lot, especially the regions known for the blues. Super, super.
I want to visit South Africa some day. We had a friend visit and she was just taken by the beauty.
