Chapter 6

When Mimi stopped her chestnut horse, Hank looked around in awe. He had to be careful or his jaw would drop. In the distance was a mountain range high in the sky. The sun was low enough on the horizon that it looked like the trees topping the range were on fire. The explosion of oranges and reds took his breath away. The actual sunset was still a ways off, but it looked like it could happen at any moment, the way the sun hung over the distant mountains.

If he could, Hank would move his ranch here. He had never seen anything so pretty.

Mimi whispered, “It’s enough to take your breath away, isn’t it?”

He couldn’t answer; he just nodded and stared at the picture-perfect image before him. Before he dismounted, he took out his cell phone and snapped a picture. “No one back home will believe this.”

He moved Bojangles up next to Buttercup. “Let’s get a selfie with the horses and us in front of the mountains.”

They turned their heads and looked back over their shoulders and smiled for the camera. Hank took several pictures of them, ensuring he got the horses’ heads in the frame as well as the sun hovering over the green mountains with the burnt-orange and red glowing rays shooting out over the land.

“Will you send me copies of the pictures you took?” Mimi sat tall in her saddle and forced herself to be calm and look at Hank. Both her sister and Elizabeth had been drilling into her the importance of facing a man when she spoke to him. Besides, with her hair braided she couldn’t hide behind it on this date.

He smiled. “Of course. When we get back into cell range I’ll text them to you.”

“Thanks.” She smiled and dismounted her horse on her own. Buttercup was a Morgan and only fifteen hands high. It was an easy distance for her to dismount without assistance.

“I’m sorry, I should have dismounted already and helped you down.” Hank mentally chided himself for not seeing to her needs first. But he couldn’t help himself; he made one of the pictures of them the wallpaper on his phone, and then another one the screensaver.

When he dismounted, he took the reins off both horses and tied them to the bush nearby before taking the picnic basket off his saddle. Then he went around to Bojangles’ other side and removed the blanket that someone had tied to the horse when they’d saddled him.

Both Mimi and Hank were content to work on setting up the picnic without a word. For Mimi, she enjoyed the silence of the land while they worked. Hank wondered how he’d get her to leave and move to Wyoming. It was too soon to ask her to marry him, and he would never ask her to move in with him unless they were married.

“What’s wrong?” Mimi stopped unloading the picnic basket and turned a worried gaze on Hank.

“Hm?” He looked up at her and noticed the crease in her forehead.
