Proud of the job they performed herding cattle, cowboys often posed for studio photographs, decked out in their favorite getup, just like this cowboy who proudly displays his Colt Single Action Army in this circa 1880s photo.

Kim Winthrop Hoffman Theodore was a great American and a great president. He was also the first president to invite an African American into the White House, for which he caught great flack. More than a Rough Rider, Theodore was for the citizenry--us. "The aim of government is to take care of its citizens." He was not afraid of big business. It's about time we got a square deal again.

Cattle drives typically lasted three months, so cowboys often bathed at the end of the trail before heading into a cowtown to celebrate.

Sandra Coulter It's true, bathing was a once a month thing...unless going into town more regularly. Life on a ranch even into the 40's and early 50's when they still didn't have indoor plumbing out west, bathing was done on Saturdays. But people did what was called spit baths, or pan baths...fill a wide bowl, or pan full of water and wash the " delicate" parts every day...full bath on Saturday.

Darrell Laducer This suggests that cowboys didn't bathe for three months. Its likely they bathed frequently during the three months, and especially at the end of the trail before going into town.

This 1884 cabinet card taken at the San Carlos Reservation in Arizona is the earliest known photo of Geronimo, which historian C.L. Sonnichsen captioned “the face that launched a hundred articles, stories, and novels.”

Perry Alan Noriega The United States of America learn to do more than fear, hate, and chase Geronimo during his lifetime. They learned to think like him and learn from him and even be like him. What child in the sixties did not cry "Geronimo !"when he was playing cowboys...See More
