Man, where do I start! As we drove into this secret paradise, the nerves from city life settled and a wave of peaceful discipline covered my body. Survival. Greeted by a pack of farm dogs, nature vs. nurture kicked in as my tiny city pup attempted his position with a growl but was quickly handled by the ones that run the place. Alpha. A pleasant warning of ranch life. Only the fittest survive and the honorable preserve. Oh, to be apart of something growing. Thanks to Julie for building my confidence in riding, to Vivian for keeping me fueled through the day, and to Darrell for keeping us all in line. The end.
