Babies Everywhere






They're finally home!! Scout and Lilly are now official members of the farm. We started by putting them in the same pasture and ended with Scout in the stall for "time out" and Lilly in with Cole. I'm not sure who's dominant. They switch food and run each other around the pasture. Scout will continue his training while John is out of state and Lilly will be taking a break to grow into those long legs. As hard as they are to feed I love having them on the farm. I'm actually excited about getting up early to check on them.

Come see them and look for Lilly in the show ring in the next few months as "Model Horse Champion of the World." Maybe I'm putting too much pressure on her...

Who's trying to hide the fact that they're painting those horses to look like zebras starting at the feet and working upward? Maybe it's aliens? Anyone seen any crop circles near by?

I got to ride Scout! And I'm gonna come ride him some more when John goes to Ft. Knox...

Dearest Richpo,

That there's called shipping boots...padding what protects them horses from cuts and what not during said shipping process.
