This same horse gave me a startling welcome when Meagan was giving me a tour of her cabin and the barn. We opened up the gate and another horse nipped at the black horse, which caused him to do an about face and kick his hind leg straight back in a line drive to my thigh/buttocks area. My body went into shock but after the adrenalin wore off, I realized my leg was still intact and nothing was broken. I walked away with a bruise...unbelievably lucky!
Christmas in the mountains.
Kristin moved to Colorado! Yay! The Rubias together again!
