What a weird day

To start things off, I earned a cowboy badge today. Woke up and was kinda groggy, went to the kitchen for the coffee of the mornin' and standing with my back to the window. Duane looks over my shoulder and says that there is a horse out. I say "don't say things like that!" As it turns out the whole damn herd and most of the boarded horses have broken out of their stalls in the night. We rush outside. Carol is in emergency mode and sets off to seal the ranch so we can minimize the damage. So I run to close the front gate. Some horses are missing. We search around and I spot them. We work together to round them up and get the herd horses and the boarding horses into the pen, I grab a couple of the board horses and get halters on them and lead them into stalls. The horses must have gotten spooked by something; they ran through 4 metal panels which seperate the stalls, and 2 fences. Pulled bolts out of a cement wall. But, it all ended well. One of the horses has some scratches on his hind leg. That was the extent of the damage to the horses. The stalls...well...they got pretty messed up. The others fixed the fences and will probably fix the stalls tomorrow. Me...I'll be back to school tomorrow and be putting the paper out all day.
