Brody Magby,4, hangs on with his knees as Josh Stewart sets him briefly atop a calf, holding onto Brody as the animal starts to run and then pulling the boy safely off Jan. 7, 2011. The cowboys were taking a break from branding calves at the Davis & Haynes Ranch in Shackelford County, Texas. |

| Ron Erdrich's Message: |
In 2011 I started a new position at my newspaper, becoming the writer, photographer and videographer for the Big Country Journal, a full color page in our “A” section. I cover a 100-mile radius outside the city of Abilene, Texas, about 23 counties.
For several years, our coverage in those surrounding counties, known as the Big Country, had waned as the staff shrank, my new job is meant to change that. I am responsible for finding all of my stories, no assignment editor works with me though the newsroom does sometimes throw things my way. Readers also suggest ideas, but the majority of my stories are found simply by getting out into the community.
I wrote 235 stories for Big Country Journal in 2011, accompanied by 551 photographs both in print and online, and logged 27,416 miles doing it.
Comments and suggestions are, as always, welcomed and appreciated.
