Joe heads for the Wild West in search of an Irish cowboy and
grapples with his fear of horses, the smell of slurry and getting
stuck behind a tractor on the way. He makes it as far as Laois
where he meets Mick LaCumbre of Fossey Mountain Springs Ranch in
the hills of Timahoe. Mick tells him about the special gift he
has with horses and his profound respect for them. Mick’s career
began as a 12 year old when he left school and started working
with racehorses, breaking them in and ending up in a training
programme at Goodwood Racecourse. He wanted to become a jockey
and even tried to stunt his growth by sleeping in a box and also
slept in stables with horses out of necessity and to learn. Now
Mick’s son Cody is a barrel racer, who shares his father’s
passion for horses and competes at a high level in Western
riding. When Joe hears how Mick makes people’s dreams come true
on the ranch by helping them learn to ride, he begins to see the
magic of the cowboy way of life.

Land healers, mountain springs, cowboy dreams and a Yellowstone
side quest. All in this episode of Ramble. Explicit.
