Welcome to Cross Creek Ranch, Wyoming. Where troubled lives let go of the past, painful memories demolished. Here, troubled Teens and children are assigned horses just as troubled as they are. Each day is a struggle, but each day things get better. Here, it is not to be the best, but to do your best. Be a trainer, a ranch hand, a forgotten child, a teenager lost in the world. Here, you can be it all.

Summer. The Season of freedom. The days are long, and much warmer than usual. The low rumble of thunder is a distant memory. The soft pillow-like form of clouds is the usual sight. When it does rain, it doesn't stay for long, and leaves behind it a sticky, muggy form of humidity. Keep work on you're horse light, and head indoors if you feel lightheaded.

A sidebar has been found and finally put up. I've been working very hard with it today, and I hope soon it will be up to you're standards. More 'OTM's' will be set up soon, and images will be made instead of simple texts. I'm waiting on that for the sole reason that I have yet to get a new skin up. Please PM me any skins you might know of that may be used, seeing as I have no time to make one myself. That is all for now.

Whinder Apartments The Whinder Apartment Complexes are found in the heart of Cheyenne. There are three buildings. In one are smaller, simple apartments; in another are somewhat larger, more lavish ones; in the third and final the apartments are quite grand, and tend to cover whole floors. There is typically plenty of vacancy in all three buildings, pets are allowed, and the landlord is one of the easiest going you'll meet.
