Though they were warned, some mammas did let their babies grow up to be cowboys. These tough hombres wake before daybreak and hit the hay early, but only after a long day of riding and tending to their cattle. It can be a lonely life sometimes, but these fellas don't mind a bit. They love working out there in the endless, wide-open spaces. They cherish the fresh air, the freedom. See cowboys photographed against beautiful western skies in this handsome calendar that celebrates their noble way of life.
