I started out the day auditing Buck Branaman's colt starting clinic. It always makes me want to run and play with my horses, so I did. When I got to the pasture, Calypso let me watch him run across the pasture as if saying " look how beautiful I am." Then he walked up to me and stuck his head in the halter. I rubbed him all over, then we went for a walk up on the ditch road. Every once in a while we stopped so he could eat some lush green grass, then we walked or trotted together down the road. Pretty soon, Mark came along with the four-wheeler and we ran behind him to check it out. At first it was pretty scary but after chasing it for awhile, it was no big deal. When we headed back towards home, I rode on the back and Calypso followed behind. When we sped up, he trotted along side of us as if he had done it his whole life. What a great day!
Now, Calypso enjoys following the 4-wheeler and just hanging out with it.
