In the summer, on the working ranches of today, cowboys try to get their work done early before the danger of an afternoon thunderstorm appears.  Each day is a new adventure, a reason to carry a rain slicker.  However, the real danger is not from getting wet, but from getting struck by lightening.

In this painting the thunderstorm has come early, just before quittin’-time. The cowboy has dismounted, he is “HEADIN’ FOR THE BARN”.
