Western evening

It has been a day of hard work.  Rode drag till nooning.  We are some where along the trail.  Haven't seen anyone else.  Not even and Indian.  The weather has been hot.  But at least we have been able to find water at sundown.  Beef and beans are getting kinda old.  Maybe the scouts will be able to get some fresh meat soon.  Old Sam the cook can make some good biscuits.  Out of bacon.  Maybe we will get close to a trading post or small settlement, then we can lay in some supplies.  Full moon tonight.  My turn to ride night heard from midnight till dawn.  Better turn in now.  Long day tomorrow.
