48、re going to have to get rid of Bay this year,” Megs dad said. “That horse cant work another winter.” It was October, and snow was falling lightly over their part of Montana. Meg knew the ranch needed strong, steady horses to bring the sheep back from pasture. Still, she could hardly take in the enor

49、mity of her fathers words. “I know Bays old,” Meg told her dad, “but he is my horse. Wont you let me keep him? Id feed him. He wont be a problem.” “We use horses for labor,” her dad said, “We dont keep them as pets.” Meg understood. She thought about Casey, a dog she had once loved. He became lost w

50、hen he chased a wandering sheep and never came home. Meg had been sad for weeks. She knew that on a ranch, animals come and go. You couldnt grow attached to them. Bay was different, though. The horse had a personality all his own. She went to the stable and stroked the old brown horses head. As Bay

51、nuzzled her hand, Meg tried to imagine what the ranch would be like without her favorite horse. The snow was falling faster, and dark gray clouds were settling over the peaks. Meg had an idea. She saddled Bay, put her foot in the stirrup, and swung up. “Lets go !” she cried, and nudged him with heel

52、s. They galloped over the meadow, onto a steep and narrow trail, and up a wooded slope. “Well round up the sheep now, before the snow gets too thick,” Meg said. “We will show Dad how well you work.”. The sheep stood in a high pasture, bleating at the storm clouds. Meg heard a lone bleat from above.

She was almost at the top when the heel of her foot slipped into a crack. She lost her balance and fell onto a rock. She trie

54、d to stand, but her foot hurt too much. Then Bay got into position under the rock. He was telling Meg to crawl onto his back! Painfully, Meg got her feet into the stirrups. Slowly and carefully, Bay carried her down the snow trail. On the way down, they met Dad riding his gray horse. “What happened

55、?” he asked anxiously. “Bay saved me.” Meg told him what happened. Dads voice shook when he said, “ I wouldnt get rid of that horse for anything.”70.
