Re: tendon injury/Horse toys

Hi Ronda & List -

Bobby's favorite toys were one of those orange road marker cones, and a
couple of plastic 55-gallon barrels. But the funniest story concerns the
horseball. I ran out to his paddock once after hearing a car screech to a
stop-thought one of the cats was hit or something. No-it was the sheriff,
and just as he had driven by, Bobby had thrown the horseball over his fence.
Landed right inside the car!
