A six month old right here at Evening Shade Farm and I have loved her since the very beginning. Her color and markings are absolutely beautiful but that's not anywhere near the best of it. She has made one of the top horses we have ever brought up here regardless of age/size/color/gender and I am personally partial to the geldings, but she is one of those great ones that makes you forget everything except the pure enjoyment of riding.
I placed Maggie when she was just coming four in what I, as always, had intended to be a lifetime home. Things change and people face uncertain health circumstances and other issues so I was offered the whatsapp number list opportunity to bring her right back to her original home
. I never had to even think about it and am so truly thankful that I got her back. She had not been ridden in three years when I came back home with her so I was initially anxious to see where she was
in terms of her mind.
All I did for a month plus was to enjoy feeding/grooming/hanging out and just loving on her. I finally shod her, saddled her up, and took her down to the round pen to see how she'd do, and she was amazing. I literally worked her two rounds when she turned and faced me, walked right up as if to say why the heck are we doing this when we could be riding
. So I loaded her into the trailer along with Breeze for Lisa and off we went to the woods at Blue Creek. It was one of the best rides ever with her never missing a step and performing as though she had been ridden every day in between then and now.
We rode with friends who were all on geldings, met some other folks also on geldings, and no one would've ever known I was riding a mare without looking. Up and down, across water and over logs/downed trees, off the trail blazing and just sitting still. She was flawless. I could go on for days but if you want one truly incredible trail partner and best friend then your search can end right here. I'll be very picky when screening for her new home so don't get your panties in a wad when I ask specific questions as it is information I need to make a decision for My Maggie
.
Thanks, DT Reg. TWHBEA Alt. Picture Well, we finally got a break in weather and time to get Trey's new pictures and boy does he look great. Me, Too... Me Three aka Trey has turned out just as we'd expected in every way, totally awesome and beautiful. He's Bold Kat's brother and both apples landed right next to the tree. We brought him home when he was just a year old and have be waiting, impatiently because of who he is, for him to get to that place where he is ready for just the right person for him to share his life. He was a little small for a year or two so we didn't even start him under saddle until last fall when he was three.
