Great video, Takes me back.

I worked on a horse farm back in the 70's.
We had a big plow horse named Gregory. He was the sweetest horse on the farm. But he was a pain. He would get bored and go break down one of our board fences and stand just on the other side of it so you had to come out and be with him.

I was telling Diane the other day, one of my best jobs was working on that farm.
