    Agreed. Non-cowboy jobs in The Old Wild West included Prospector/Miner, Builder, Gunslinger/Bounty Hunter, Sheriff, Saloon Owner, Blacksmith, Wagon Train Leader, General Store Owner, Barber/Surgeon, Doctor/Veterinarian, Horse Dealer, Saloon Entertainer, Midwife, Schoolmarm, Farmer, Laundress… and of course Native Americans just trying to preserve their own society/way of life…

    It’s probably shows like “Rawhide,” where the main cast of roving cowboys encounter all the above, that got us thinking of it all as “Cowboy Life.”
