Yes, my avatar is our first horse. She will be 2 in May. She is a TWH/SSH.
She's going down the road at the end of next week after her boosters and having wolf teeth pulled to a pro. trainer.
The pasture that is here is tinsel and I don't really trust that so we've order 5' high 3 rail vinyl fencing to replace it and add more behind and on the other side of the house. We plan on beginning that this weekend. We have about 1/2 mile of fencing to put up.

Do I miss MD? Not really. I miss some of the people I knew there.
I love living out here in the country.

Get on a plane. I can put clean sheets in the spare bedrooms in about 10 minures. Pick you up from the airport and we are good to go.
Warning though. Your reef is way nicer than mine. So you have to give me some tips and tricks while you are here.
