In reply to the discussion: Laurie's horse is here. Maddie is a 20 year old Paint mare raised from birth at the old farm. [View all]George McGovern
(8,126 posts)24. You're welcome Fla Dem. Back story: Laurie's my better half. We moved a month or so ago.
Prior to moving week Laurie trailered her horses, Maddie and her half-brother Pete, to board with good friends close to our soon-to-be new farm. Whereas Maddie's with us now, Pete's still boarding because our friends' seven--year-old son took a shine to Pete. Laurie's been giving the youngster riding lessons on Pete in exchange for all the board. Pete will move in with us sometime before next winter.
Thank You for your interest!

Your horse and farm (and you) all look fabulous. Take some time for yourself. I can see you have a lot of work time.
