President's Day…on horseback…exploring stories.

More than half of America's presidents arrived at the White House on horseback. President Taft closed the White House stables a century ago. But President Eisenhower trained as a Cavalry Officer at West Point. And Ronald Reagan rode horses in some of his most memorable movie roles.

Consider the art of the presidential horse. Construct a First Horse and First Rider. Program your horse to walk, trop, cantor, or gallop according to your President's vocation (or avocation) – Washington a General, Jefferson a fox hunter, Lincoln in search of solitude, Teddy Roosevelt an adventurer.

Explore the idea of horses as a transportation technology.
