A Ranching Family Celebrates Western Heritage
Tommy Harris, his wife Debby, and their son, Cactus, think that modern folks should spend a lot more time learning about and appreciating the Old
West. The Harris family ranch celebrates America’s western heritage with agri-tainment shows that give visitors a chance to ride on and even drive, a western stagecoach and wagon.

On a trip to the Harris Ranch, you’ll likely get a chance to put a rope in your hand as well. The Harris’ son Cactus Harris is a champion trick rope artist. His skill in twirling large lengths of rope looks difficult at first, but his skill as a teacher can soon have you twirling a lariat just as they may have done 150 years ago.
