Heard Steve read it today on A.T.R.. Gave me goosebumps and a tear to my eyes.. Thank you Steve/W.C Heinz.

This is probably the fourth time I've read that story and each time, it seems likes the first. It's so well written that I don't even read the words anymore, it's become a moving picture in my mind, almost like I'm there in the group that huddles around the horse in his final moments... amazing writing.

R.I.P.
