On this week's program:
#22607 Weekend of February 14th, 2026
In 1996 Western Stock Growers celebrated their centennial with a week -long cattle
drive across a vast open piece of rangeland. 1500 people, 1700 horses, 2000 steers.
The then manager of the Douglas Lake ranch, Joe Gardner and his family took part
and this week you'll hear his colourful stories from that event. The music will take
you along on this epic ride, and there's cowboy poetry and the story of a troubled
horse and a surprising cure.

Hugh's guest this weeek is Joe Gardner.
