The "I LOVE everything about that summer on the mountain" thread
ednbarby:
Katherine inspired me (remember - imitation is the highest form of flattery). :)
I love how Ennis watches Jack ride off after he says, "We'd better git unless you wanna sit around tyin' knots all day."

I love that first little smile Ennis bestows on us in response to Jack's rodeo clowning around. It's like a flower opening
ednbarby:
I love the way Jack flashes Ennis that look that says, "Don't EVEN say it" when the mare startles and rears when he gets on to ride out to the sheep after supper, and the way Ennis leans forward to watch him ride away.

Barb, I'm so glad you started this!
I love the "happy tussle." After the various tensions of the tent scenes (and mind you, I'm not complaining about those!), this scene shows how relaxed and comfortable they have become about being affectionate with each other -- particularly Ennis, who uncharacteristically initiates it!
serious crayons:
But I also love the "angry tussle." So much misdirected emotion by Ennis and, eventually, nurturing by Jack. And when they roll down the hill, you can tell how much they'd secretly rather be lovin' than fightin'.
(Sorry to post right after myself, but we're limited to one thought per post and I wanted to contrast the two tussles.)
