Greg and Mitchell are brothers with apparently little in common-Greg spends his spare time gazing at the stars while his brother Mitchell prefers the mud of the rodeo arena. Karen and Amy are friends with ambitions as wildly different as those of the Kellaway brothers. As the pressures of impending adulthood mount and they contend with the demands of parents, friends and their own dreams, each of the characters learn that spills, thrills and heartache are not confined by geography and that adulthood begins with a voyage of self-discovery.
