Now, if you are a "Top Gun" fan, you will definitely see the humor behind this. "Iceman", "Maverick", and "Hollywood" (Woody) are some of the names of the Naval Aviators in this film. We didn't plan it, it just happened....so if any more horses join their group, maybe their names will be "Goose", "Wolfman", "Stinger", "Viper", "Merlin", "Jester", or "Slider". :)
Most of today was Iceman and Woody getting to know Maverick. Iceman and Woody have become best friends, following each other all day long, and sharing meals. Now, we have a third guy in the picture, who isn't the best with socialization but we figured these two would be the perfect candidates. Lots of sizing each other up, lots of squeals and kicks, but all in all it seems they all got along.
Eric worked with Iceman for a good portion of the morning. Iceman was leading well and Eric was even able to pick up his hooves for a short period of time. The biggest accomplishment was Eric rubbing and scratching Iceman's face from under the fly mask. Iceman has always been so weary and shy of his head, but today Eric was able to rub from the nose all the way back to under the ears on the left side.
