Thursday- story time!!!!! lol :)

Part 1

Jinny went outside on her front porch early in the morning. The sun was slowly peeking up from behind the horizon making the sky a beautiful pink colour, the sky was almost cloudless, with small fluffy clouds scattered here and there. Cicadas chirped quietly, but loud enough to make Jinny feel peaceful, she loved the sound of their chirps. Magpies sung continuously making the morning more perfect and peaceful. A swarm of at least twenty Cockatoos flew overhead making their loud screeching noises as they went. One thing Jinny loved to do was to get up on early summer mornings and to admire the beautiful Australian outback. Although Jinny didn't really live in the outback she liked to call it that even though she lived in the country about ten minutes away from the nearest town with shops and restaurants. But anyway she knew that she belonged in the country, not anywhere else. Their house overlooked their biggest field, where all the cows lived, all 76 of them including the latest calves. And weaving between paddocks, barns and stables was their long gravel driveway. Behind the house was the second biggest field containing horses. Jinny owned three horses. She had one horse to ride English and the other two for western pleasure, events and mustering cattle. One of Jinnys western horses was a Palomino Quarter Horse gelding named Luna and the other one is called Storm, her first horse- a rescue horse. Storm is an Australian Stock Horse with a dark bay colour and not to forget Jinnys English horse, a chestnut Thoroughbred called Pondie. She stepped off the porch and onto the dew covered grass. Making her way to the stables, where three of her horses were living, she admired the way the horses greeted her in the morning when she was walking down the trail. They would lift their heads up from grazing and walk over to Jinny or even nicker at her. Once she arrived at the stable, she got out the keys and unlocked the huge wooden doors. The first step inside the stable was always the best, a whiff of horse smell and horse manure went up Jinnys nose. It would be pitch black in the stables if it wasn't for the small windows in each stall spilling out rays of light. A few weeks ago, the automatic sensor lights went out and since then it had always been dark. Jinny reached for the light switch and turned on the weak lights hanging from the room but even if they weren't that strong -to Jinnys relief- they made the stable heaps lighter. As she walked through the stable aisle, all the horses in their stalls walked up to the door and stuck their heads out of the box. Jinny greeted them all as she went until she reached Storm’s stall. She was going to ride her today. Jinny grabbed Storm’s halter that was attached to the stall door, caught her and led her to the tying up area outside of each stall.
