Congratulations to Ray and Alice for going to a driving competition a couple of weeks ago. Pete and Ray took third place! (Pistol Pete that is!).
Congratulations also to Mollie Roehl and Squire One for taking first place at their first walk-trot competition last weekend!
We did an impulsive thing and took off Friday night for the southern state of Alabama. You see, we sold our horse trailer and wanted to find something less expensive that would suit our needs. We knew we needed a four horse and not a six horse. We would have loved to have had living quarters, but that would put us back into debt again. Our goal was to pay off what we owed on our trailer, which wasn't much, and buy something about half price. We found one! Okay, so we had to travel a wee bit to get it, but it was so worth it! We came home with an older Featherlite with partial living quarters and even an awning that is in awesome shape! I would recommend Kelly's Trailer Sales in Alabaster, Alabama to anyone. They were the friendliest, most conscientious trailer sales people we have ever dealt with. We cannot thank them enough. Along the way, we took pictures of cotton fields and other things we saw. We stopped in Nashville and ate seafood buffet at Shoney's. It was a whirlwind trip and we are a little punchy today. So worth it, though!
Thank you to Carmen for fostering FOUR horses for ASAP! Thank you to Andrea for continued fostering of JB, the buckskin mare, and the little colt. Thanks to all of you who continue to care for the horses when it is hard -
Thanks to Balmoral Park who will host next June's 5K run for the horses, with ASAP as beneficiary of the event!
Anyone interested in going to Balmoral for a Christmas get-together this year? Let me know - we could arrange a sulky suite and have a blast watching the races!!
More soon,
Susan
