So here Cheri is, all lonely, a week off work and desperate to ride.  Because I really can't because of the heat, Jackie is the good sister and loads panels, horse, feed and hay into the trailer and loans out Chief to my sister for a week.
Chief (Fee-Boy-Pride-&-Joy-Playtime-Toy), the good horse.  The sweet horse.  The follow you like a dog horse.  The "Reason-I-am trying-to re-breed-Tesster-because-he's- so-awesome" horse.
Yeah.  Okay . . right . . . .
Chief, the one who screamed for 12 hours straight.  The one who tired to jump out of a 5 foot paneled pen.  The one who bolted and would not be stopped for a quarter mile.  The one who spooked so high and hard, my sister (who is a batter rider than I) almost came off.  The one who tried to bite her when they got home.  
Yeah.  That one.  The one I bragged on until I was off the ground with pride.
If you wanna learn humility, buy a horse.
