Cowboy was traveling up the Animas River canyon on his horse, Zorro, The trail was very rocky and Zorro turned up lame due to a lost horseshoe..  Cowboy had to rest Zorro for the night. Cowboy had a spare shoe in his saddlebags and could put it on Zorro if Cowboy could build a fire hot enough to bend the horseshoe into the proper shape.  Cowboy started a huge fire near sundown to make some real hot coals.  That night the wind was blowing and the flames from the fire danced higher and higher.  Cowboy looked up to see sirens appearing in the flames, Cowboy became hypnotized dancing red and yellow wisps of fire shooting high in the air. The sirens were making spine-chilling howling noises. that kept Cowboy up all night.  By daylight, the fire had settled down and Cowboy was able to form his horseshoe in the red hot coals.  With the new shoe on Zorro, Cowboy mounted up and headed on toward Rico.

You may need tweezers or needle nose pliers to remove the log.
