"A mule will work for you 20 years for the chance to kick you once."

- William Faulkner

My great-aunt Ruth's white mule was named Snowball.

Was the quarter mare a sorrel? Looking at her again, she's too small to be out of a Belgian. A Haflinger maybe, but too big really for that - Haffies are almost pony size.

Here's my mare - you can see she has a "kind eye" too.

She is a sweetheart. She's royally bred but she couldn't catch cold if you spotted her 3 furlongs. But I don't care, she gets me there eventually, and she's a pretty mover.
