Clint Hazard is a misunderstood man. Clint thought of himself as a man’s man, a cowboy’s cowboy, he was as macho as they came. Micah, Clint’s best friend, had quit his drinking and carousing, beginning his recovery by attending AA. Micah’s life began a positive change, and people noticed. As Clint observed the changes in Micah and noticed the other ranch hands responding to him, Clint began to think he wanted to be more like Micah. The more Clint observed and talked to Micah, the more Clint realized his shortcomings. He wanted to change but it was always “just one more”. He lacked the discipline needed to make the changes. We follow Clint’s triumphs and failures as he attempts to change his life for the better. Not quite what I was expecting but it’s an interesting tale.
