Colt drove the truck up the driveway and towards the barns. He stopped at the first one a hopped out, walking around to the trailer. He had loaded the mare last, so he could drop her off first. He opened the door, and walked in, untying the mare and backing her out of the trailer and into the rain. He led her towards the barn, and soon put her in the first vacant stall that he found. He found a small pile of hay nearby and stuck it in her feed bucket. He nosed around a bit until he found the tack room. He grabbed a few brushes and a hoof pick and went and groomed her as she munched the hay. Soon, her coat was dry and gleaming again and any scrapes from tree limbs or the stallion were disinfected and covered with a healing balm. He had cleaned her hooves and oiled them and made sure her shoes fit snuggly. Two small rocks had been lodged beside the frog of her back left hoof, but he got them out easily enough. After he finished he fetched a measure of regular crimped oats from the barn and poured it in her manger. When he finished he returned all the supplies to the aproppriate places and then shut all the doors and turned off the lights. He went back to the trailer and locked the door, then headed towards his barn.
