Tumbleweeds gets its name from the likable cowpoke who tries his best to be an optimist. It isn’t easy because he lives in the wretched frontier town of Grimy Gulch, which is populated by bizarre characters including cowboys, eccentric Indians, marriage-bent ladies, soldiers from the nearby fort and melodramatic villains ready to stir up trouble for poor Tumbleweeds, who simply longs to improve his town.
