right after you came to live with us.
It's nice to have been picked.
I hear he just happened.
Boys, boys...
Pretty wonderful having
you boys home again.
That's something special
I've been saving.
There've been time over the years
when I didn't think...
That's alright Dad.
There've been time over the years
when we didn't think so either.
- Here son.
- Ira!
Thanks, Dad.
Here's to us!
- What is this stuff?
- Whiskey.
Won't be long before
the Circle H is yours.
Maybe mother and I will take
a trip back to Kentucky.
But now tomorrow.
We'll start life as if there'd been no war.
Yeah. That's alright.
What's the matter, boy?
I don't know. It seems
Well Texas is a big country.
Sound gets lost in it.
Maybe I've been so used to sound
and excitement that
the idea of ranching kind
of slipped away from me.
It'll slip right back again.
Tomorrow you'll get into it.
the love of ranching.
Well we better get some sleep.
Tomorrow's a big day.
Good night, Dan.
Good night, Mother.
You really like this, don't you?
Sure.
I believe you do.
For Dad's sake,
try to make a go of it.
It'll break his heart if you give up.
Let's just do one more.
It's getting late.
Near supper time.
There's excitement
in this ranching Dan.
A man and his dreams,
the cattle and the future. Yes sir.
We used to talk about this,
what we'd do when we got back.
Well, we're doing it.
The old life again.
Yeah. The old life again.
Dad.
Who are those men down there?
Just about everything
under the sun I guess.
Ex-army deserters,
renegades of every stripe.
- Is that where they live?
- Yep.
I doubt even the Texas Rangers,
even if they hadn't been disbanded,
Dregs of the war.
What more could a man want?
Fine home, good food,
this year, plenty of cattle.
1600 heads in the extreme
south section
and 950 in the big meadows.
When the Eastern markets open up
and the drives to Kansas begin
with a little luck,
we ought to be in pretty fair shape.
Meanwhile you're short of money.
Yeah. Meanwhile.
And in city's like Austin
men are making money hand over fist.
That kind of money is no good.
- What's wrong with it?
- It doesn't build solid land.
That's false prosperity.
I'd like to have a little of it.
What are you trying to say son?
Maybe I can't be satisfied
with ranching.
Trying to make ends meet year
after year like you been doing.
But we're happy.
We have everything we want.
Part of the joy was
Let's face the facts Dad.
You're 65 years old and the ranch
isn't even paid for yet.
