Lace is the one whose horse is pointing north. <\/p><\/div>\n<p>And, we have some connections in Greensburg where we<strong><em> r<\/em>eally<\/strong> appreciate your support.<\/p>\n\n<p>Greensburg is 92 miles northeast of the XIT Ranch, a stone&#8217;s throw. Kevin Lewis worked with Lace&#8217;s father and grandfather for 24 years. \u00a0He is now a free agent cowman, saddlemaker, poet, and tells a good story living at his family&#8217;s homeplace south of Greensburg.<\/p>\n<p>His wife&#8217;s cousin, a Huffman, is a patrolman you may encounter if you cruise thru on 54. A warning: the speed limit in this town is like 10 mph for what seems like a county . Stop and visit the Art Center, designed by Rockhill&#8217;s Studio at KU. \u00a0Dan Rockhill is a master recycler. \u00a0These are all good things to know in case you come for a ribbon cutting.<\/p>\n<p>And, if you come in June we&#8217;ll let you help brand, but you have to start at the bottom. Lace&#8217;s brother Jack is tired of pushing calves in the chute. You would like him, he&#8217;s a musical dancing engineer-in-training cowboy and just helped take the KU Phi Delts to Rock Chalk. If you know Paul Rudd, please let Jack know when he&#8217;ll be back home to KC. \u00a0They can meet at Capitale Grille on the Plaza and Jack will bring some Jayhawk basketball players he&#8217;s buddies with if Bill will let them out of practice. Jack \u00a0also does a mean, &#8220;it&#8217;s the way of the future.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_554\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-554\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-554\" title=\"19930147\" src=\"https:\/\/backattheranchwithpaula.com\/coffee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/19930147-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"&quot;John Adams with his daughter, Lacy&quot;\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-554\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">John Adams with his daughter, Lacy<\/p><\/div>\n<p>But, you may have get through this guy.
