The mares are in their new home! We had to jump the kid's truck with mine to get it started. The battery went down from sitting for a week. It was just my daughter and I, but we got them loaded ok. Some hesitation, but a whip and the Arabian training halter my daughter has and they went in. The lady only as a small area fenced off for winter, but she showed us that in the summer months, she opens up a bigger pasture. Mud same as us, but a least she has a little grass. Both mares had to get a little zap from the fence. They will learn fast. A very nice person and she knows about horses, so I feel confidence they will be fine.
The new construction is a lean-to that the horses will be able to run in and out. Perfect for those two. You can see her gelding peaking out and Sable looking at him. He is locked in there for now. She has sold him and the man is suppose to pick him up tonight. The mares had been in the barn for a few days and were so happy to get out. It did my heart good, to see them running and bucking.

Great news! The mares sure look good too. So much different than they did when they first came to you. It sounds like an ideal situation for them and I sure am proud that you did so well by them. Good Job!

That looks like a plenty big paddock for them, and not overly muddy for already having had a horse on it. I'd like to see a little more wire on the fence, but then I tend to like overkill on fencing. :~)

Oh - and the mares look great, they've got fair weight on them now.

Looks like a very nice home for them, you'll get a star in your crown for what you have done:)
Good job.
