We were going up to practice roping tonight and Matt was supposed to catch Rhett’s horse, Snort. Well, just before he went out to catch him, the horses headed out to the pasture. Matt was undeterred, however, as he decided he would just ride Twinkie out to catch Snort.
You see, Twinkie is Matt’s miniature pony who he has broke to ride. Matt rides this pony daily. Not on any cattle drives or anything like that. Just around the lot and the yard and occasionally up to Joe and Heather’s.
I didn’t realize the plan, but when I looked out the window, I saw them all coming to the barn. It made me smile. Who needs a 4-wheeler when you have a miniature pony?
