I whisper through my fingers and through my camera lens, of life, joy, beauty and family.
I always listen to the whispers...they will tell the truth, if you simply listen.

Home Sweet Home

Buddy has a new home!!  
Here's my happy boy grazing on some nice green grass--
a far cry from before!
He has a lovely indoor/outdoor stall with 
plenty of fresh bedding 
and 
three meals a day.
The text I got today said he has a new pasture mate too!
A sweet little filly named Twitch.
Rumor has it, Buddy is quite smitten with his new lady friend.

 One of Buddy's new stable mates.  This beauty is huge!!  He measures at about 18 hands.
I'm thinking I'd like to ride him one day... but I think he needs a little more training.


 Buddy is being rehabilitated at the moment.  Something horrible happened to him at his previous home, that has caused him to be lame in his hindquarters.  
Sadly, I can't ride him for awhile and I even tried lungeing him and that was causing my boy to not feel so good.  
So, I have retained a chiropractor--well respected in the horsey world--to come take a look at Buddy and see if he can relieve some of his soreness.
Eventually, my dream would be to take him on a trail ride such as the one shown above.
Alas, that might be a long way off.
The other very bright spot in in my life is this shining face, below.
 My sweet granddaughter... loved spending the weekend with my Cammie Bear and my Kids.
Kory and I really packed it in... moved my horse, had a Cam Day, 
spent time with my Sister and Niece and Nephew,
Took in a Diamondback's game
and settled my Buddy into his new home.

Family and my loving pets make life worthwhile.

Moving Day!

I'm pretty psyched today.   
Buddy is moving to his new stable!  
My youngest and I are flying to the desert to help get Buddy moved.  
Every horse should have proper care.  I won't go into details of his current stable, but it is missing the mark.  
By a long shot.  
My new stable owner says he will have a clean bed and dinner 
waiting for him when he gets there tonight. 
I'll post again after his move and let you know how it went..
with pictures too.
Here are a couple shots of his new place.
 Here's his new home!!  He has indoor and outdoor digs. Love it!







 

 He's heading to greener pastures today....
Thanks to my sister for her input on Buddy's stable...
