Or maybe he wants to elope there with you! : )
If it doesn't work for us nothing lost while we continue to search. It's a better place for the horses in the mean time. My BIL has been kind of down and is so excited about the horses coming. I hope he's happy about us coming too. I talked with him a long time tonight.
It was just 45 dollars but if I hadn't have been charged I might have changed my mind and left them here awhile longer. Principles, you know?
Are your pics ~still~ uploading?

Sounds to me that this could be a good thing for not just you, Eddie and the horses, but for your brother too : )
Yeah. He used to live in a mansion. Now he's building a cabin. Guess he should have done more eloping:')
Ah! A horse ~and~ a dog~
Pretty shepherd... he must be Kristy's?
Is she really little or is Rowdy enormous? or both? Even her saddle looks little on him. :~D
Great pics Becky!
I really mist get out with my camera and take a few, but our horses are so muddy right now, i would be hanging my head in shame...
Hopefully this weekend we can bath them and put them to rights!
I will try and take some if I get the chance......: D
The shepherd is Kristy's. Charlie bought her for Kristy while they were still dating. I got to keep her a few weeks before he gave her to her. Coco.
Kristy is a tiny thing, and Rowdy is a pretty good size horse. Kristy's wedding dress was an "ought" and had to be altered down. We don't like her:)
Becky
LOL - that's really irritating ;~D
Hair,
Those are fantastic pictures :)
Bay is worth a million, I'd say don't ever get rid of him but I know that would be redundant. :)
Her saddle actually weighs more then mine. It is a combo, roping barrel saddle. She was learning to rope on Charlie's old roping horse. She was just getting the hang of it when he had to be put down. She can't rope off Rowdy. Charlie ropes from him, but Rowdy is afraid to face cows:), and Charlie is afraid Kristy could get hurt because, Rowdy gets rather squirrely when he has to face off. She's got him running barrels like a pro tho. She would have been taking him to the local jackpots, except for her leg. She'll be able to go when we get back from TX.
Becky
Ah - OK - she's the one with the bum knee she was worried about... see now all these stories have faces!
When's TX? This weekend or next?
~smiles~
Rowdy is a RED horse :) I do love that color.
We leave a week from today. The clinic is June 10,11,12. We'll come home on the 13.
Becky
Yes, he is. He doesn't have a white hair on him.
My son bought this horse when he was 3. He is the same age as Belle. But Charlie didn't do much with him, he was courting at the time:), and didn't have the patience to train one at the time. He was standing around being wasted. Kristy had bought this really crazy horse, it was her first. I went and watched her run barrells one time with Charlie and her horse went over the railing, high centered. I told Charlie, if you really care about this girl you need to tell her to get rid of that horse.
Well she got rid of it. Mack was talking about selling Rowdy, since no one was using him, Charlie had traded Mack Rowdy for a horse Mack had bought that turned out to be and excellent roping horse. I knew Rowdy was a good horse, he just needed to be worked with. Kristy was dying to find another horse, so I told her to come over and start riding him. She did so good, and they loved each other so much, Mack just gave him to her for a wedding present. Once she got him going good, Charlie started roping on him and he is just great at doing both.
Becky
I am now. What's up?
Is 72 dollars too much for a complete vaccine in Texas? No vet visit. Just me buying the syringe. It sounded outrageous to me but I don't want to drive all the way to TSC for a few dollars.
