Tay Martin and I went to prison today. Again. I guess that makes us repeat offenders.
So much so that the inmates are asking us about the horses from last time. And the time before. Talk about having friends in low places.
I’m fairly comfortable – not in a weird way – interacting with inmates. Some of you might know that several years back I had the glorious idea to do my counseling internship at a maximum security mental health correctional facility for male offenders.
I wouldn’t trade the experience for anything. And I’m glad I’m no longer working in that environment.
Today was something. First we tracked down the school bus (these days I do some counseling for our tiny local charter school) this morning on our way down the hill to hand the school bus driver who’s also the admin and my neighbor one of Taylor’s homemade muffins.
In town we dropped off the Shepherds with a friendly local because no pets on prison grounds (ask me how I know that 
), loaded our wildies and talked to the inmates about previous adoptees.
Once out of prison, we grabbed the doggos and took them to their vet appointment. When you live an hour from anywhere, making town trips count is crucial if you ever want to get anything else done.
Coming back up the hill we stopped by the school where the littles were practicing for their end of school year presentations, in costume. We got to shake hands with Ben Franklin, learn fun facts about Little Richard and give a pep talk to Pocahontas.
Once at home, the boys unloaded nicely. Now I’m sitting in a trough with a hay bale as my chair, while the sorrel and the bay roan pinto are calmly eating right next to me.
I’m dead tired today but one day I’ll write a book and call it “Wild Men, Wild Horses, Wild Kids”. Today we spent time with all 3.
Please put your thinking hat on, we’ll have a naming fundraiser for these 4 handsome, young Wyoming Mustang geldings this weekend.
They will be available for adoption once gentled through Wild Horse Outreach & Advocacy in Guffey CO. Hauling to anywhere within the lower 48 can be arranged.
Please comment, like and share to help these boys get seen so we can find them their ideal humans!
