The man we bought him from had already named him, so we didn’t see any reason to change it since that was the name he was used to. Even as a child, I remember being amazed that Dad would get back in the saddle after his favorite horse was accidentally shot out from under him while hunting in Tensas Parish as a teenager. But, he did. There was work to do,...
