    Which is why Niki and Garrett decided to give it a try in their latest episode of "Homebuddies."

    They headed to Clifton, Arizona, where ranchers Eric and Jeanne were gracious enough to invite them to stay at Cold Creek Ranch.

    When Niki and Garrett saw where they would be staying, it totally gave Garrett some end of the 1800s vibes.

    And the living room, which Eric and Jeanne, are turning into a library, was gorgeous.

    That night they all went out to see as much of the property as possible from one vantage point.

    They cooked dinner in the dark because they had to conserve energy.

    The next morning they awoke to rain, so Eric made alternate plans and took Niki and Garrett to feed and shoe the horses.

    It wasn't as easy as it looked, but they worked as a team to get it done. Okay, so they only got two out of the four shoes but that was still really good.

    Oh, they also put on some chaps, which Garrett had never worn.

    After tending to the horses, they went inside to oil the saddles, which was part of their annual maintenance for the ranch.

    On the third day, they all went out to take the horses some hay out on the land, which required them to yell out, "Heeeeeyyy cooooowwws!"

    When their ranch experience was over, both Niki and Garrett were exhausted, and they had a much deeper understanding and appreciation for the ranching lifestyle.
