Thanks - I'm in it for the long haul. I would never sell my horse to the glue factory. An interesting note, Traveller, General Lee's beloved horse, is buried right close to the General's grave. Something to consider : )

A friend of mine just found a book about Gen Lee and Traveller... he is reading it now and was gonna loan it to me when he is done.

Me too... even with my bad pony. I let a couple go.... my first horse, a gangly mustang who taught me to ride. I wanted to start showing horses and had an eye for pretty Arabs. I sold him to a good home with kids 20 years ago and lost track. I worry for where he ended up.

I bought my Bay back at age 19 (he was never really mine before, but belonged to a friend, I watched where he went, from home to home) When he came up for sale at 19, I knew whoever bought him now would be responsible for his end.... and he deserves the best. He has the best heart I know.
