Dancing with my Le Cheval Canadien!!

Herki will be spending a week or so in Littleton at a friend's housewhile we prepare the little bulls to be shipped. He is so goodnatured. The first day there were a couple times when I got a tinybit nervous watching the mare and molly mule chase him around - notreally though. They would come running at him full speed and fliptheir rearend at him like they were going to kick. He would lift hishead from the grass, give them a "so what - stop bothering me" look,and go back to munching. It was priceless. Now, after only 5 daysthere he is right at home. All three have been "caught" laying downtogether. All three will trot around the pasture together. He ishaving a blast at his vacation home AND he is only about 7 minutesaway, counting Littleton Main Street traffic. So, I get to save somegas and visit him twice as much. I go to see him at 6:30am and thengo again in the evening after work. The folks who allowed me to puthim in their pasture are very very nice. I don't see them much and Itry not to bother them - they are older folk. While I enjoy havingHerki so close I will be happy to have him back in Bath too becausethat is where all his equipment is - except for his western saddle,which I brought along because I plan to get in a Moore Dam ridebefore I bring him back home. I've been dying to do that ride for along time. Anyhow, that is what we've been up to.
