“The horses stay out all day until five o’clock or so. They have lots of fresh water in the outdoor troughs, and run-in sheds for shade. We bring them in if the weather turns really nasty, or of course, if there’s lightning.”

Laura smiled and nodded. She totally understood the consequences of lightning.

It was a very tired and dirty – but happy – young girl who called her mother shortly after one o’clock on her new cellphone to say she was ready to come home. The van had barely rolled to a stop in the driveway at their house before Laura was out the door, bounding up the porch steps.

“Where are you off to in such a hurry?” her mother called after her.

I’m going to check on my talking, flying horse was what Laura wanted to say, but what she really said was, “I’m, aaah, stinky and really need a shower.”

Flash was very happy to see his mistress. He sniffed her hands with great interest. “Hmmmmm, horses. And lady horses, too. Tell me all about your day.”

Laura started to strip off her sweaty tee, then stopped with a little gasp. “Oh,” she said, face reddening. “I can’t undress with you watching. That’s just too weird.”

Flash snorted. “I think you’ve forgotten that I’ve lived in this room for years. Mind you, I did spend most of my time looking out the window.”

Laura collected some clean clothes and headed, still dressed, to the bathroom for a much-needed shower.
