Story

There are two ways to build a horse. One way is by ordering a horse through the mail. It comes in a big box marked "horse". - Dolan Geiman

There are two ways to build a horse. One way is by ordering a horse through the mail. It comes in a big box marked “horse” and you just add water and grain and take photos of it and talk about it like candy or old girlfriends. The other way is to grow up running down fence lined pastures, watching the farmers kick tractor tires and digging in the dirt around the back of the barn, pulling up old whisky bottles and dragging rusted cola sign treasures from the shaded side of the silo. When the snow is so cold that you hide in the piles of barn hay and watch the sun betray the clouds to melt the barn roof icicles, that’s how you build a real horse. This is my real horse.
