Well, two down, two more to go... Horses, that is

We have sold two of ours and I would really like to sell two more. We sold Kaitlyn's show mare Kellie a while back and tonight we just met a couple down by the interstate with Squirt, one of our miniatures, to deliver her. They are from Pennsylvania and have been clear down near Cincinnati to pick up another mini today. She said they have been on the road since 6 A.M. and we met them at 10:30 P.M. and they still have a good 4 hours to go to get home. =/ YUCK! But they seemed really nice. I have been emailing back and forth with them for quite a while. I think she is going to have a good home. They do alot of showing and she also does breeding. Squirt has excellent bloodlines, her sire is a 2 time National Champion at Halter. I kind of hated to get rid of her, but we have too many horses, and it isn't like we show the minis. Plus she is a fence tester, she loves to find ways to get out. We have done quite a bit of breeding, but I think it is something we are more or less done with for now. We will keep Pinkie, but Comet is the last foal she will have for us.. and she will retire here. So unless we get more minis sometime in the future, no more breeding. Here are a couple pictures of Squirt I took mid-June. She sure is a cutie.. and I actually got all teary eyed tonight when we were standing there talking and filling out the paper work.


I still want to sell Slingshot and Diablo I think. That will leave us with Callie, Darcie, Teddie and Pinkie. Wow.. that will be nice.. only 4 horses. Oh and Comet, the colt.. for a while. I don't know if we are going to end up keeping him or not.. probably not. Anybody want to buy a horse?
