It's hard to believe after 24 years I own a horse once again. I gave up riding while expecting my second child, Lisa. Life passed by and I was called back to horses once again. My sister Joan was the catalist drawing me back. After unsuccessful leasing, then sharing her horse Stevie, my dream boy came up for sale.
The day before my daughter's wedding I found out that Dancer was for sale. I had leased him in the past and loved him. I agonized over this as we were heading on a three month trip to New Zealand following the wedding.
Well, I managed to fit in the vetting, the purchase, finding the stable (with friends to care for him ), in a few short weeks then left him for three months. It was very hard.
I arrived home at Christmas to deep snow and limited riding as there is no indoor arena here. But, spring is here and we are now out riding in the mud and I mean mud! My boots have been suctioned off a couple of times when leading Dancer through the gate and chasing his roomie, Nava, away.
The sun is shining and I can't wait to get riding.
