He came from a famous blood line. His mothers name was Nell and his fathers name was George. His grandfather was a world champion roping horse. Volando was well trained to rope and ride. I bought him from my sister Lou, with option to buy back. I owned him for five years. Volando was a fun horse to have in the family. My children Mike, Barry, & Bryne loved to ride him on the farm & ranch where we lived, in Oklahoma. He bucked them off if they rode him double. He wanted only single rides. I was inspired to write about our experiences together because he was such a unique horse.
