Here We Go Chapter 4

Ranger and I were in the Cobra headed towards his beach house. Ranger turned off the main road and onto a dirt road, then onto a path that I didn't want scratching my nice new car.

"Babe, it won't scratch your cars. The plants are further away than it seems." Ranger's ESP was working. Then a beautiful beach house with a private beach appeared with a beautiful wooden barn beside it. He pushed a button on the dash's touch screen and the barn doors opened and Ranger drove into it passing stalls full of horses and coming to a row of parking spaces at the end.

"Ranger what's up with the horses?" I asked.

"They're for riding on the beach." Ranger said, turning the car off.

"Why do you keep them here?" I asked

"So I can relax and getaway. Sometimes I'll bring my family here" He responded.

"When can we ride?" I asked, excited

"Now" He led me to a stall with a stunning, tall, black stallion in it with a white blaze, long mane and tail and white 3 socks. "This is Raven's Time or Raven. He is your horse" he walked one stall over and big, dark gray head popped out with a blaze and three socks, I could see as I walked over and peered into the stall "This is my horse, Lightening."

He grabbed my hand and led me to a door a couple stalls down. He opened it and I walked in to find rows on top of rows of expensive saddles on one wall with other tack on the opposite wall. Ranger walked to one wall, picked a bridle, walked to another, picked a saddle, walked to another, and picked other tack from different racks.

He walked to me, handed me the pile of tack, and did his routine again.

"Go to Raven's stall press the 2nd button and put the tack on the rack that pops out" He said

I did as he told me, and a tack rack popped out. I placed the tack on the rack and he said "Now tack up"

I grabbed the halter, placed it on Raven's head and couldn't find the latch to his stall. "Ranger where's the latch?"

"3rd button Babe" I heard him intercom. I pushed the 3rd button and the door slid open.

"What does button 1 do?" I asked

"Try it"

I pushed it and another set of tack appeared out of the wall

"Hey! You didn't tell me that worked!" I said

"Forgot about it, Babe" I finished tacking up and was putting pink polo wraps on Raven when Ranger and Lightening walked up. "Ready?"

"Yep" As I finished the last wrap. "What other horses are here?"

"There are a lot, I have more stables down the beach, want to ride down there to my biggest one?" He asked

"Sure"

We rode down the beach for hours and then Ranger finally pointed out a stable in the woods just beyond the shore.

"Where are we sleeping?" I asked, it was almost dark by now

"There's an apartment upstairs" He said

"Cool" I responded

The next day…

Ranger and I were riding back to the beach house after a wonderful time at the stable in the woods.

"Ranger why did I have to come here, not that I'm complaining" I asked when I was untacking Raven.

"So you could relax, and not have to work during your pregnancy" Ranger said, coming to the stall I was in.

"When do we leave? And where's Lula?" Me

"They're in the house. Which by the way is as technology-loaded as the stable" Ranger pulled me to him

"Where have you guys been? I've been looking all over for you!" Lula yelled

"In here" I yelled back, pulling away from Ranger.

"Hey! Did you see the paddocks out back?" Lula said

"No" me

"Look" The paddocks were filled with beautiful horses, all with long, flowing manes and tails. Some were tall some were shorter, but they were all gorgeous.

"Wow" was all I could say.

"Babe breakfast is waiting" Ranger said.

"Ok"
