Last Friday (May 16th) my horse, Jim, had a pretty intersting accident. Bill (the guy that owns the property where Jim is staying) went out to feed the horse and the cows. He gave Jim some oats then continued his way across the wooden bridge to feed the cows. After Jim was done eating his oats, he took off at a full gallop towards the herd. As he turned to cross the bridge, his feet came out from underneath him and he fell on his side. Jim tried to get back up and when he did, he fell off the bridge into the creek below. Bill ran down to the creek to keep his head above the water when Jim got his footing, stood up, shook himself off, then took off at a gallop again to find his favorite calf. Bill watched him for a good hour to make sure he was alright. There was no limp on him or anything. My horse is very lucky to have come out of that situation with just a bruised ego.
