"A Good Life" is a documentary told by the Cowboys and Cowgirls of Northeastern NM

"A Good Life" is a documentary told by the Cowboys and Cowgirls of Northeastern NM. From their stories you will come to know the rich cultural heritage and history of this ranching community. Learn how a flood decimated what was once one of the biggest livestock centers in the southwest US. Hear the stories of George McJunkin, and how his discovery of the Folsom Point was one of the biggest Archaeological finds in history. Listen to first hand accounts of the 1930's dustbowl that caused many to lose their livestock and homesteads. Back in the time of Billy the Kid and gangs like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, there was Black Jack Ketchum. Black Jack was an outlaw of the Old West that was seized for train robbery and sentenced to death by hanging. Find out why people were shocked at the hanging when the trap door was opened. Learn the traditions and changes in current ranchers lives and the purpose to their hard days work. Take a look at some of the best pencil art this World has to offer and why Dino Cornay's southwest realism is so special. Listen to the sounds of silence; view the surreal landscapes, smell the unpolluted fresh air, touch the ground and feel the powerful force of nature.
