Colt
Dust and dirt settled over the rodeo arena as Colt closed the catch pen. That
was the last of the bronc rides. Judging from the cheers, no one seemed to
be bothered by the dropping temperature. Wyoming nights were about to hit
the unforgiving freeze-your-nose-hairs-off stage.
Colt rolled his right shoulder and felt the pull on the other side. Before
tonight, it had been a few years since he’d dislocated a shoulder, and
apparently injuries hurt worse in your late twenties. He should have taken
better care of his body in his teens.
Adjusting the strap on the shoulder sling, Colt scanned the crowd. He
hadn’t caught a ride with Ridge this morning, but driving was going to be a
killer if he had to use his left arm.
Colt spied a glimpse of his roommate through the crowd and made a
beeline for him. Normally, Colt would work late on Friday nights after the
rodeo, but he was useless thanks to the bronc that had bucked him earlier.
“Colt,” a woman called as he passed.
“Mrs. Hampton.”
The Hamptons had been guests at the ranch all week, and Colt had made
fast friends with their son.
Colt swung his good arm out for a side hug. “Did you see Nate’s ride?”
The kids practiced riding the horses with Jess and Remi all week and got
the chance to show off their new skills for their parents on Friday nights. It
was always the highlight of Colt’s week.
“I did!” the woman squealed as she wrapped an arm around Colt’s waist
and squeezed. “He’s had a blast. I guarantee he’ll be talking about this place
for months.”
“Good.” Wolf Creek Ranch was one of the last dude ranches in the west
that hadn’t succumbed to the luxury industry. They kept things old-fashioned,
just the way Colt liked.
Mrs. Hampton released the hug and stood on her tippy toes to scan the
crowd. “Have you seen Jeff?”
Colt looked for Mr. Hampton. He spotted the dark-haired man near the
catch pen and pointed. “There.”
Mrs. Hampton waved. “Thanks again!”
“Come back next year. We’ll get Nate on a trail ride.” The eight-year-old
was a natural on a horse and loved the outdoors.
