Adults & Teens: In 1880, Alan Day's grandfather homesteaded the Lazy B ranch. This dusty tract of land produced a Supreme Court justice, a lauded Arizona state senator, and a career rancher and land conservationist. Alan explores the ranching life, from the chuck wagon years of his childhood through his adult years of increasing bureaucracy, airplanes, computers and drones. At the heart of his stories lie adventures that most of us will never experience, as well as a deep love of the natural world. Copies of “Cowboy Up” will be available for purchase.
