Helicopters can come in handy sometimes, though. My husband and I put on the
Hewitt the Hermit ride in Ohio. Camp is on an abandoned airstrip that the
military helicopters sometimes use for practice landings (or bathroom
breaks?). Anyway, Ol' Bubba decided to shove the pony through the electric
corral and all six horses headed down the runway full-tilt. The Reserves
picked the perfect moment to land at the other end. The horses looked like
grand champion reiners as, in unison, all did a sliding stop, roll-back and
hand-gallop back into the corral, peeking around from behind the trailer to
see if the monster was still there.
