Here's to Bromance

Thursday April 7 2011

While some things have changed, not much has really changed since Tex (now named Ted, but Stormy still calls him Tex) arrived on the Owyhee scene a year ago.

As we saw in BFFs and The Bromance Continues and Mutt and Jeff, Stormy and Tex still continue to be Best Buds.

Tex doesn't worry so much when Stormy goes off on a rare ride, and Stormy just eats while Tex is away on a trail ride learning to be an endurance horse, but when they're back in the same pasture, Tex is never far from Stormy's side.

Maybe it's their shared sports background (the racetrack) that makes this Bromance work. Maybe they were together in a former life. Or maybe they were just meant to be together in this one.

The Bromance Continues

Thursday July 1 2010

Little Tex still likes hanging around his big pal Stormy. He follows him everywhere.




Today Steph rode Tex out on his first trail ride (ever, we think), and his pal Stormy escorted him.


Stormy went beside Tex,




followed him,


led him,


and had a conference with him.


Tex did pretty good with the big, confident, calm (some might say: lazy), experienced former racehorse accompanying him every step of the way.

Remember the pictures of those handsome athletic muscle-bound guy pals Lance Armstrong and Matthew McConaughey having a great time running and cycling around the town?

These handsome athletic muscle-bound guy pals Stormy and Tex hitting the trails around Owyhee kind of remind you of Lance and Matthew.

Or... well, maybe "Mutt and Jeff," Steph said.
