And Speaking of PONIES…

He’s all settled into his new home.

Likes: Sugar cubes, trotting, face rubs, and the little brown QH gelding who shares his paddock.

Dislikes: Long, bumpy trailer rides, the pigs that live kiddy-corner to his paddock {“What are those stinky things?”}, being told to stand still when he would rather go check out what’s in that bucket because maybe it’s food…

Most days, he can be found knee-deep in hay, munching away. But- as yummy as the hay may be- he likes human attention and always comes over to see what I want when I show up.

How about that pouf of flaxen mane, eh?? Kind of makes me want to name him Bon Jovi.

    Is he big enough that an old person like me can ride him when I visit you someday? 😉
