A Modern Cowboy Seeks Fame
By Virginia Prescott on Thursday, August 14, 2008.
Riding across America on horseback sounds like an old-fashioned adventure, maybe something out of a John Wayne movie. But when former ranch hand Bill Inman set off on a seven-month journey to cross the nation, he had more than one romantic notion in mind.
The AP got wind of the story, as did Fox News and dozens of newspapers across the country. Bill got e-mails from as far away as India and was greeted as a celebrity nearly everywhere he went. Reporter Jen Nathan caught up with Bill as he neared the end of his trail. (Photo by zen Sutherland)
