Well, with Twister being born in cold, wet and windy conditions he had been in the barn his first 2 days of life. Today it was a very sunny day and Mama (Sally) actually let Twister go out of the barn.
Now, you have to understand that this was difficult for her. You see, like many kids Twister has a listening problem. Sally would drive him to one stall and, as her back was turned, he would walk to the other one. She could not eat and watch out for him. After a bit of frustration and a few quick nips to the hindquarters he was back in line. We decided today to allow Sally and Twister to have free access to the field. Twister took several naps in the sun...always posiitioning himself behind Sally's very powerful legs.
This evening Sally taught Twister to run. He looks so funny with those long legs...looks like he was running on stilts! Of course the camera was inside so we don't have any pictures of him running. We can't wait to see him playing in the field!
