Missy the Horse and Quintin

We have two Quarter Horses, Missy and Lucky, both purchased with the intent of allowing Kevin to participate in one of his favorite hobbies, Team Penning. Kevin has a natural affinity for the sport and many of our "dates" included me cheering him on while he rounded cattle into their appropriate pens (this feat requires a variety of skills, including speed, agility, an ability to multitask, teamwork, acuity, etc.). Unfortunately, work and family and life in general have taken over Kevin's free time and he does not have much chance to ride. The horses remain, however, and are still treasured "pets." Missy is particularly shy and is at ease only with Kevin -- on this day, however, she allowed Quintin to come right up to her and stood still long enough to get a couple of photographs :-)
