Susar II X-mas party – - The End - UnConclusion The Meeting I walked into the barn, casually greeting the low knickers that chorused down the aisle. “Hey, Susan!” The trainer over at the Saddlebred barn says “if you really wanna see a horse that jumps they gotta colt jumps outta the window of the stall!!” I had just arrived in Texas from the East Coast, and word had gotten around that there was a real tall girl in town who rode jumpers. Dallas, Texas in 1961 was not exactly the hunter / jumper mecca of horsedom, so I was something of a novelty. “What kind of colt is he, and why is he jumping out of his stall window?”
