I started hanging around an Appaloosa farm down the road when I was about 10. They let me clean stalls, and hang out and refuse to leave... Eventually they let me ride too ;~D.

They later moved to Nevada, and gave me my first horse, a Mustang they had found critically shot on their land and nursed back to health... They sent him up to me when I was about 13-14.

Note the bell-bottom pants. They date me. ;~D

Great photos! The jeans are "in fashion" now! My ten year old has always been horse mad, and, it is for her that i am determined to learn enough to be able to saddle up by myself and go riding! Right now, time is not in my favour, but I am looking to do what I can with what I have.

I think Sugar is the horse I am most comfortable around. She seems to talk to me a lot and I find her the easiest to communicate with. I have ridden her alone and we have done very well with no problems! : ) I dont know whether she knows she was in such poor health when we rescued her and whether its because I would constantly make sure she had plenty to eat and gave her lots of attention.......but I love to hear her talk and she seems to me to be happy with me.
I will be so glad when she foals and is ok. I look forward, little by little to spending more time with her again, riding.
