My friend, Deb, loves horses, but she really knows nothing about horses which I just found out about the other day when the bus stopped at a ranch. I really thought Deb knew how to ride horses until I looked up and she was sitting on the horse backwards, holding the tail instead of the reins. It was quite a hilarious sight to see. We got Deb turned around on the horse and the ranch owner decided he should just lead her around and would not let her ride by herself. She was very disappointed.
Later as we were having lunch at the ranch, she met a hot cowboy named, Jack. They hit it off really good. Jack kept talking about his horse, Trigger. By this time, Deb had visions in her head, Jack might teach her to ride Trigger. Well, needless to say, Deb thought Jack must be the toughest cowboy in the west. You could just see the excitement in her eyes while she waited for Jack to bring Trigger around for her to ride. Boy, did she ever get the surprise of her life. Jack came around the side of the barn riding Trigger. Her lovable cowboy was on a blow up (inflatable) horse. At first, Deb was a little disappointed, but decided it was better than no horse at all and she had already fallen in love with Jack at first sight. Those two ran around all over the pasture on that blow up horse and had an absolute blast. It came time for our bus to leave and Deb just couldn't leave Jack behind. Jack and Trigger now are on tour with us. Our bus is in need of repair. Jack, Deb and Trigger now perform a little show in every town we stop in to raise money to keep our bus on the road. Watch your local newspaper to see when we arrive in your town, you won't want to miss this performance.

Well, well, well ain't this a cute card! Love the picture of Jack, you can really see what a happy go lucky guy he is, if not slightly demented. However, you have the story all wrong!! See we went riding one day and the ranch hand was so obsessed with me because he was in awe of my horse handling skill and so stunned by my beauty that he fell off his horse and was seriously injured. I felt so bad for him, see he lost his job and has no where to live so we gave him a job driving the bus. Since he can't ride a real horse anymore we had to get him this blow up horsey. Jose Cuervo stopped by and Jack stole his gun, now if I don't do the horse and pony shows he says he will hurt my friends Shirt and Kat, well I certainly can't let that happen, where would I be without them and poor Kat, she has those 4 bambinos to think of! Jack really is sweet and he can't help it if he has fallen for me, I am pretty amazing you know!!
