Mr. Fishy and I went on a trail ride today - he on Miles, me on Paddy. The trail is Miles's specialty, his forte, his place to shine and be the best. Paddy is a good trail horse, too, but can sometimes get his panties in a wad...plus he's too small for Mr. Fishy. So, even though Mr. Fishy and Miles don't make a good pair in the arena, they are trail partners when we ride out together. Today we had a nice trail ride, and at the very end, just as we were almost back to the staging area, a dead limb fell from a tree, probably 50' up, almost onto Miles & Mr. Fishy's heads. Miles did a little 1/2 spin to the left to avoid getting hit, Mr. Fishy stayed on him, and Paddy and I just watched from behind, stunned. Miles was a big champ - I could see most other horses turning tail and getting the heck out of dodge, but he just got them out of a potentially dangerous situation, then kept on walkin'! I guess he got used to things falling on or near his head while we went on our trail-grooming adventures, with me trimming branches and letting them fall onto his noggin and mane. For all his little naughty pony ways, he has proven himself to be my #1 pony man and the guy I would want under me if the shiite hit the fan.
