Cheese or cattle, technology or place, what can you create from the western icon? Go traditional or new; go where the prompt leads. inspired by a prompt by https://rantingalong.wordpress.com/2017/05/26/99-word-prompt-long-on-the-horn/

The hidden light of the sun barely cut through the thick fog that covered the prairie in that remote village when, unexpectedly, a strange shape could be discerned in the distance. I stalled in fear.
The crisp winter air and the moisture made the scene even more ethereal. There I was, face to face with the most magnificent animal staring deep into my eyes. She was standing still, enamored, looking beautiful, majestic and grandiose. I was stunned, speechless and mesmerized as this longhorn cow communicated to me the essence of her right to live. And then she was gone.
My apologies.
I’ve done the same thing — crediting the wrong blog — and I took the liberty of sharing your entry to the 99 word challenge on the right blog https://carrotranch.com/2017/05/26/may-25-flash-fiction-challenge-2/
I wanted your post to be seen where you can have more exposure.
