Keeper of the West album by Ryan Fritz is a great celebration of family and tradition in song whether that is a gift of birth or the blessing of being built by intention and desire with the will to become ones genuine individual character and to create an interdependent family and community in the agrarian spirit!

"Proponents of agrarianism believe that when individuals attach themselves to farming and a rural way of life, the required labour enhances their existence. Family and locale are rooted, allowing stable associations to develop that enable people to experience, in a non-acquisitive way, the goods of a grounded community, including leisure, friendship, love, art, and religion." Britannica

Give the Boy a Rope a great song with a well crafted video to celebrate passing independence and tradition down by Ryan Fritz Just Keepin' it Ranchy!

For the Boys & Girls at New Mexico's Boys & Girls Ranch creating family and community with the will to flourish!
