Blackjack Cowboy

Book Five, Story Four

Blackjack Cowboy is a beautiful black stallion of the Kentucky Mountain Saddle Horse breed. When I first saw Cowboy at a distance, his beauty and elegance took my breath away…I just had to meet him! It was at an event where I was selling my children’s books and I left my table, walked right over to Cowboy, and petted him and talked to him. Only after my time with Cowboy did I introduce myself to his owner, Konny Troupe. Konny and I have since become good friends…I always love to visit her and Cowboy! Konny shared a story with me about her grandmother, Kathryn, and Cowboy and I included that story in this book before Story Five, “Honor Your Elders.”
