I <3 horses.

My first horse 



Sugar was my first horse. Read about her here.

Sweet Surprize

Sweet Surprize 

aka Sugar

My second horse 



Spirit came next, although technically I got him and Sugar at the same time.

Fiery Spirit

Fiery Spirit 

aka Beer

Not mine. 

Henry was another horse in my life.



I absolutely love his spots!

My third horse 

Ex Cita Ble, a BLM Mustang mare. "Cita" for short. She was pony sized and very tame for having been a wild 4 year old. I believe she was probably handled some between satellite adoption centers.



Had a unique "lit candle" marking on her face, and the strangest hoof-shaped permanent indentation (scar tissue?) on her side.

Mustangs' fate uncertain. 

Not mine. 

Tiffany was a palomino Thoroughbred/Saddlebred cross mare owned by a friend and roommate.

She acquired Tiff for FREE when the owners decided to have her put down because they didn't need her, and she was 'old' -- she was only about 15 years at the time.

My fourth horse 

Next came Rambunctious aka Bunny, Sugar's bay filly by an Appaloosa stud (see Henry, above) ... not quite ready to write her story, yet.



She was meant to a Walkaloosa but was neither gaited nor spotted.

What is a Walkaloosa? 

My fifth horse 

Must have been ... Thunder?



Sans Marque was a breeding stock paint yearling gelding that I WON through a raffle. He was technically my first husband's horse.

He was very sweet and gentle, with a lot of promise, and we sold him to a nice home who would better help him find his potential.

My sixth horse 



My second BLM Mustang, this time a stallion that refused to be gentled.

Was just plain lucky the first time around with an untrained adult horse, and Miskwa Andek (Ojibway for Red Crow) never let me forget it.

My seventh horse 





Wassessi Gissis ... 'the sun is brilliant'



My eighth horse 

Toddy Black Baby, and aged TWH and own granddaughter of the infamous Midnight Sun.



Lovely old gal that brought a lot of smiles her final year.

My ninth horse 

Casey, a small Shetland cross. More of a pet than anything, used to walk her down the road with the kids on her back.



Life circumstances forced sudden sale.

My tenth horse. 



Titan aka His Royal Fatness

Read about the one-eyed wonder horse.

Titan 

aka Fatty McFurball

Not mine. 

Char aka Silver was a pasture pal to Titan for a while.

She was a grey Arabian/Morgan cross that was sold to a great home out of state where she is now a pampered princess.

Not [exactly] mine. 

Blizzard aka Phoecious (fece-us) the God of spraying sh-tuff all over the stall, the trailer, etc.

You'll see Blizzard featured on the Standardbred lens, as well as the Horse Dealers lens.

Blizzard cameos 

A few lenses featuring Blizzard pics.

Not [exactly] mine. 

Cysco followed me home one day.

He was a gaited pony that I bought for my kids.

In the end, he proved a little too much for my beginner to handle, and we found him a home with more confident young riders.

Cysco appearances 

You may find Cysco featured on the Mountain Horse lens ... he was a Kentucky Mountain Horse (or could have been, if he had come with papers).

Not mine. Ours. Or maybe just his. 

Zeus is my husband's baby.

He was started as a Big Lick horse, and was a stallion until the age of 5. We bought him at 6 and have only used him for trail riding.

Zeus the model 

Zeus is shown as an example of a Tennessee Walking Horse.
