Enjoy that ride, it sounds like a blast. You certainly have a lot of spare horses! :-) Man, wish I had that problem. My trainer sprung something on me today- she wants me to buy Levi if she has to sell him when she moves. I was floored- it came totally out of left field. Well, it did and it didn't. I have been riding him and we get along well. (i.e. he's very tolerant of my mistakes) I do have a soft spot for the moose, he's lulled me into a false sense of security. :-)

I'm going to look at that saddle tomorrow. I'll let you know what I come back with. My mother is bringing my grandmother to watch me ride, so there will be pictures. :-) The funny part? Grandma is afraid of horses. Extremely Afraid. So we'll see what happens. (grin)

Wow, that sounds like a great idea! He's absolutely gorgeous, he likes you, you like him, what more could you ask for?! I'd go for it, and maybe she'll make you a good deal on him or let you lease-to-own or something.
