n nCharlies not old! So what if hes 28 and most people consider that a little old for a horse. When his rheumatism isnt acting up, hes as frisky as any young colt. And hes certainly not ready for retirement. Charlie can tackle any tough job that comes his way.n nUnfortunately, Mr. Spinks, Charlies owner, doesnt quite agree. So he makes Charlie take a permanent, though well-deserved, vacation. Poor Charlie is bored to death!n nBut then Charlie discovers there is something he can do. Maybe retirement isnt so boring after all!?! n
