Let The Good Luck Happen

From my grandfather's time through my own years, the Fordyce family has been a constant presence in the Big Horn, Wyoming, ranching scene. I was born ranch, raised ranch, and feel ranch. For most of my life, I've been involved with the land that enchants me. In Let the Good Luck Happen, I cover some of the history of this region, but mostly you'll hear some great stories of growing up in the Big Horn Valley and my ranching ventures. The people in this book, along with the horses, dogs, pigs, and cattle, are the backbone of these stories. You'll get to know some real characters who made this valley what it is today. You'll also enjoy learning about Tepee Lodge, one of the high points of my ranching life. Tepee was a family-oriented dude ranch, and the stories that came from that experience are not to be forgotten. I'm also including a special section of my photography, a career I developed after my years in ranching came to an end. I learned from some of the best, like David Scheinbaum, Janet Russek, and Eliot Porter. These endeavors gave me great fulfillment. So enjoy the book. And may the good luck happen to you like it did to me.
