He has been granted a year’s stay at his godparents’ Wyoming ranch to learn what ranching involves.  He came to stay with them in early summer.   Now he must go thru a winter in the high country, a test even for those from New York state. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  Receiving a horse of his own  -a young pinto that he names Toby-  he finds additional complications: Toby may be blind, he needs training, and his ownership is in question.  There are times when work must be done, Dan learns, at a ranch or anywhere, even if a person is tired.  He appreciates the beauty of nature and also learns more of its difficulties.  During a time of being snowed-in when he is alone, Dan must draw on his own resourcefulness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  A thread running thru this story is Dan’s belief in a God to sustain him.
