The 101 Year-Old Cowgirl

I often wish I could ask my Texan grandma for life advice, especially now that I’m an adult. Fortunately, I learned a lot from her growing up but unfortunately, I haven’t yet figured out how to talk to ghosts.

But luckily, we have documented footage of this amazing 101 year-old Texan cowgirl giving life advice. She died at age 101 after being thrown off her horse Dr.Pepper. Basically, Connie Reeves was a badass.

Her secret to Longevity: “Well Honey, you just don’t let that rocking chair take over…you get up and go even if you don’t want to.”

Life advice: “Saddle your own horse and know which direction you’re going.”
