Idaho

The horse who sticks out for me the most was a big quarter horse gelding named Idaho.  He was 16.2 and palamino and he was patient enough to teach me all about horses the summer of my 15th year.  I spent 3 blissful months learning how to ride my patient teacher.. loping circles, barrel racing. roping cattle, branding.. Idy was awsome.  I am sure he is long gone now, he was 13 or so when I knew him.  He was an actor and was a horse used in the Dances with Wolves movie.  He was a great embassador to the horse breed… I don’t think I would know half of what I know now if it weren’t for that great big golden boy…
