An around-the-world horseback ride is in north Texas today.  
Cowboy Ezra Cooley is a 28-year old from Chico, California and today he rides his horse up to Cook Children's Medical Center, part of a 27,000 mile global expedition. His goal is to raise 1 million dollars for the children's miracle network.
He's already ridden his horses from California, to Manhattan and now back to Texas.  Cooley is two years into this 10 year horse ride.  He says so far on his trip he has fallen off his horse, fallen off a cliff, been through thunderstorms and ice storms and had one run it with a grizzly bear.
From here he heads to the gulf coast, and will ride across Africa and Europe.
Cooley and horses will use airplanes between continents.
