illustrations How do you suppose the horse feels about all this? 9 We had both stood motionless looking at each other. 13 I would first have to go through the "passenger door ritual." 23 What I remember about it most is the height that I got. 35 We heard a sickening crashing behind us. 45 He suddenly blew, catching the ring finger of my right hand. 49 I stopped my advance and helplessly looked on. 66 She stopped, turned in my direction, pinned her ears back, and charged. 73 His head popped up like I'd hit him with a hot shot. 87 The horse took off across the pen, sqealing, bucking, and jumping. 90 Surprised, he quickly began to backpedal as fast as he could. 93 He then began to move my leg back and forth, up and down. 104 I applied just enough pressure to the rope to cause it to be a major irritant. 107 The rope broke, sending the horse falling over backwards.
