Buckskin Bandit
“I was breathing hard, not from running but from holding in tears. It’s not fair, I muttered to God. Every other kid in my school has parents helping them with science projects! But not me. Not my dad, the inventor.
I inhaled the smell of horse and manure. It’s my sure cure for any problem. But it wasn’t working. My temper had exploded, and I couldn’t get it back in. Mom used to call me her “hot-tempered Mustang.” I was living up to the name.
I walked into Nickers’ stall. She and Buddy, the orph...an filly, still shared the same stall, even though Buddy was almost three months old now. Nickers had taken over as adopted mom. Next to them was Annie Goat, on loan from Granny Barker, Eddy Barker’s great-grandmother. The goat had been a lifesaver for Buddy, who had nursed from Annie before learning to drink from a bucket.
The rest of the barn was empty except for my friend Hawk’s horse, Towaco. It had been a month since I’d boarded my last problem horse, a Miniature Falabella, who belonged to one of my classmates, Sal.MoreLess
