A new horse

My beloved Bob transitioned (that's a yoga term) almost 3 years ago. I was plunged into an abyss with his loss--those of you who have been around for a while know how hard it was on me. After a few fits and starts, I began riding again in July at a local barn with a great trainer. I am now leasing a horse! It's just like leasing a car, with all the responsibilities and costs, but I don't legally own her.

I never thought I would lease a red-headed thoroughbred mare who cribs, but I did and I likelikelike her A LOT. Her name is Ariel and she is a former school horse. I could tell she needed a person, and I needed a horse so we were made for each other. We're still figuring each other out but it's great to be back in the saddle and back at a barn.

Oh, and Bob and she share a famous grandsire--Foolish Pleasure, who won the Kentucky Derby in 1975.

Wonderful! Bob is irreplaceable and has his own forever place in your heart but luckily the heart is expandable and now includes Ariel. Can't wait for pictures!!!
So happy for both of you.
I have to remember how to post pictures. Mady, someone said love does not divide, but multiplies. Took me a while to figure that out!
Ariel sounds beautiful!
there are picture posting instructions that are easy to follow as the process has changed.
