The days were short, and the nights long. But there was still work to be done. Reese spent long hours at his desk tending to the working of the ranch and his other business interests. There was much to be done before spring, when much of his time would be spent in rounding up the herd of Texas longhorns roaming the open range. Faith spent her time tending to the hundred little distractions and details Reese was too busy to tackle. The rest of her time was devoted to Joy, and to her lessons. Her nights belonged to Reese. It was an arrangement that worked well. Neither, Reese nor Faith questioned the duration. It was too easy to pretend their time together would never come to an end. * * * Trail T Ranch Cheyenne, Wyoming Territory March, 1870 Dear Aunt Tempy, Aunt Virt, Hannah and Agnes, Joy and I are well. Wyoming is beautiful, though the weather is unpredictable. One moment the sun is shining and warm, and in the next, there is snowfall, of blizzard proportions. Cheyenne, the largest town nearby is small and new.
