During the summers at EA Ranch in Dubois, Wyoming there is a Swedish cowboy, yes, really he’s from Sweden.. Stockholm in fact. That’s what’s so quirky and charming about Dubois. The characters. Along with Taz and the Wiltshires, Max is another transplant.  Max the Swedish Cowboy.  You’d never know Max is from Sweden, he dosn’t have a Swedish accent and dosn’t go around talking about Sweden, but once you get under the layers of all those cowboy duds, you get the story. Max has 2 loves, okay well 3 if you count his girlfriend in Sweden. The first one of course is her! And then comes Dubois,Wyoming and lastly Sweden.  I’m not sure you can actually call Sweden a love, but at the end of the day it is home and it is where he goes when it gets cold and dark here? Which is an odd oxymoron itself  as if your a free spirit like him that loves to roam, and has roamed the earth  for over 25 years you think he’d pick somewhere like New Zealand that’s nice and warm to hang out when its chilly in the West instead of somewhere just as cold with less sun . Ah that’s what’s great about Dubois Wyoming… The people!
