You had me on the edge of my seat here, I am glad the horses were rescued. Horses are beautiful and so therapeutic
for the disabled, there are quite a few horse farms here on Cape Cod. I enjoyed reading your story, you hold the reader's interest.

Bless you my friend; glad you enjoyed my true story. Australians have always been horse people, always will be. They are big and beautiful, willful and we love them. Thanks so much. Cheers, Kay.
Comment from Carolyn Hilliard
Ah, Kace, thank God for people who will rescue animals like these folks did. I loved your story so much dinner - on the table - had to wait.
I work with a horse rescue outfit. I love every one on those precious, diverse spirits.
God bless!

From one equine lover to another - we love our horses, our country was built on their willing backs. I'm glad we have a common theme - why don't you write about your horse rescue outfit? Sure to be a winner. Love, Kace.

This is an amazing story, You kept my attention throughout.
What a brave group of people they were, working tirelessly to get the horses to safety. It seemed that no one gave thought to their own safety,
I am so very glad every thing turned out for the best and all of the horses were taken to safety.
You told your story so well, making me believe you were sat right next to me telling me. Well done.
Thank you for sharing this inspiring story.

Hello Mrs. Wyoming, Yes indeed, horses would be in your blood. It was a terrifying night but we came through in the end. Love, Kace.
Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
What an amazing story, Kay. What a wonderful crowd you all were to fight through that storm, I can understand how frightening it must have been for the poor horses. You certainly all deserved the meddals for what you did. It is lovely when you can count on friends to help. Well done, Kay, this is a lovely story to read. Good luck in the contest. xsx Sandra

Kace, This is a fabulous story full of interest, full of educational information to readers, like me, that don't know anything about horses, and it's just a pleasing story to read. Very nice work. Carole

wow what an exciting and scary story. I love horses and I was so worried over the little one. I was glad the others followed honey and the little one responded to here too. This is an excellent story. God loves you and I do too.
