"When the Hi-Top folded, they moved to a small apartment in Riverton up over a laundry.  Ennis got on the highway crew, tolerating it but working weekends at the Rafter B in xchange for keeping his horses out there."  [story]

Thank you for that magnificent toast. That picture is worth a thousand posts. I actually took a puff of a Cuban cigar when I was in Cuba 6 years ago. I'll stick to just Mojitos.

Jack tries to convince Ennis to start a life with him, to build a cabin and to run a cow and calf operation together.
