1971 - Davis Ranch, Sonora Texas
I was six years old and it was shearing day. A large part of our annual income depended on the sale of wool and mohair, but I didn’t know or care about that part of it. My only thought was to get down to the pens as soon as mom would turn me loose when I heard that ancient pickup rattle up the road at daybreak carrying its crew of four or five Hispanic men.

Hey Ya’ll, welcome to the latest episode of A Texas Girl Talks!

They had always been and would always be exactly as they were, even as my brother and I celebrated birthdays and the pe...
Visiting My Ancestry - The Story of Tom and Buena Davis, part 1
For me, it began with a love story. But not a romance. It was a story about the love that a child has for her grandparents. Over time, the story evolved into an investigation of the history of these people who had been the bedrock of my childhood…the when and the where of it all. And even more recently, an exploration and analysis of the psycholo...
