Elias Plumb spent his adult life building a tech empire in Northern California and in the process made a terrible mistake. Instead of being the kind of father he should have been, he tried to buy his daughter's love and affection.
He’s not about to make the same mistake with his granddaughter, Katie.
No, Elias is finally going to give his granddaughter the kind of love she really deserves. And it all starts with sending Katie to the last place on earth she’d ever want to go. A cattle ranch in Nebraska.
“A Girl, A Ranch, and A Rodeo” is a classic fish out of water story about what happens when a spoiled and immature girl from Northern California joins the Pendleton Ranch in the beautiful Sandhills of Nebraska.
And though Katie Plumb’s experience of the ranching life is initially quite rough, she eventually rises to the challenge and learns valuable lessons along the way.

- She learns critical skills of ranching like milking cows, riding horses, mending fence, and roping cows.
- She opens her mind to a new worldview and in the process learns more about the value of farming and ranching.
- She learns about the amazing sport of rodeo and its connection to the skills used in ranching on a daily basis.
- She learns how to work very hard.
- But mostly, she learns what it's like to be part of a real family.
And by the time the Pendleton Gang gets to the last night of Nebraska’s Big Rodeo, Katie’s life has been completely changed.
