The Horse Ranch Story

Picture this …..

San Ysidro, California – just north of the busy Mexico border crossing.

The year is 1955.

Monty Roberts is son of an itinerant horse trainer and so begins his love of horses.

His family moves around frequently to look for work and his schooling is constantly interrupted.

One day in high school, his teacher gives the class an assignment to write about what they want to be when they grow up.

Monty’s inspired and writes a 7-page paper about his dream to own a 200-acre horse ranch and he includes details about the buildings, stables and track and even draws a plan with a 4,000 square foot ranch house.

Four days later, his teacher marks and returns the class reports and Monty is surprised to see that he got an “F”, with a note to see the teacher after class.

When he sees the teacher, Monty asks her why he got an “F”.

She tells him that what he wrote about was too unrealistic for someone like him, from an itinerant family.

She says that it takes a lot of money to acquire a ranch and horses and that he should instead focus on something that’s within his reach.

The teacher says that she’ll give him another week to re-write the paper so that he’ll have a chance to improve his mark.

Monty goes home and thinks long and hard about what to do.

Finally, when the week is up, he goes to his teacher and hands in the same 7-page report.

He says to her “You can keep the “F” and I’ll keep my dream.

Well, within 16 years Monty Roberts DOES get his dream horse ranch and achieves the beautiful life that he had envisioned.

And he lives there to this day and is known as an internationally acclaimed horse trainer and horse whisperer.

Now you may be asking …

Did this really happen? …

Yeah, it’s true! Monty Roberts is the real deal! “Yee Haw!” 🐴
