When we were looking at colleges, one of the college administrators explained that the reason they don't have an equestrian team is that every alumnus and every backyard pony owner in the county would be trying to 'donate' their unusable mounts to the school.

"don't have time to sell them" probably means "I couldn't sell these two if I took out a full page ad in the paper for 3 months."

We don't even know what kind they are. They are only down the road, so might take a look.

Becky, yes we are leaving shortly to see the gelding. It's raining, so I don't know if we will ride.

That is so true. I get contacted at least once a month by someone who has a horse that needs a home. At last count, I think I've fallen for ten of them. I have been able to find good homes for all but three of them though, but it took years and lots of feed bills.
