I can t believe you re boarding Tammy s palomino for a whole month! Lexie Howard exclaimed to her friend, rather breathlessly. Neither can I, Coral Johnson laughed in response to her eager enthusiasm. But my cousin is going away for a while, and unfortunately, she couldn t take Golden Haze with her on holiday. Unfortunate for who? Lexie grinned. I thought you d be delighted to have such a pretty horse staying at your ranch I am! Coral playfully shoved her friend on the arm, amused by her good-natured teasing. But I m still surprised that my dad said yes when Tammy called to ask.
