Well we made the long trip up to Michighan this weekend to pick up Dancer and Gambler.. It was great to finally meet Tracy from Racking North Ranch.. Tracy is a very sweet lady and I hope to meet up with her again and maybe do some trail riding. We didn;t get to stay long as the trip is about a 10 hour drive, I wish we had more time so we could have spent the day with Tracy and Mick. Dancer and Gambler took the long trip home very well, Gambler acted like a pro and took it all in stride. It was pretty late when we got home with them, and they was very happy to see their stall. Today we started Gambler's Leading lesson's and he picked up on it very fast, within the hour he was leading like a trooper. We also had him backing up on the lead and he took right to it. He is a very sweet and a very smart guy, he let us clean out his feet without any fuss I have to say he took it well. He loves being brushed and loved on I think he has really enjoyed all the attention today, and of course Dancer got just as much attention and she seemed to like ti as well. When she was not eating grass that is LOL. Dancer is bred back to Tracy's stallion Vern and is due to foal around the first of May, I will get up with Tracy and get the exact due date on her and we will have her on cam here next spring. My camera isn't working very well so Aaron took all the pictures and has only e-mailed me 2 so far of the trip, which are of me and Tracy, I will get him to get the rest to me tomorrow, and tomorrow I will try to get some pictures of Gambler and Dancer as well, Gambler is a HUGE foal for 4 months old Shawn was amazed at how big he was LOL. He is going to be a big horse when he is grown and I can't wait to start him under saddle, he shown me today on the lead what I have to look forward to and it is going to be one heck of a smooooooooth ride!!! Tracy again thank you soooo much for allowing us to own Dancer and Gambler, we will take great care of them and I do think Gambler will have a great show career with us. Here are a couple pictures of me and Tracy, she is an awesome lady!! Pictures Of Dancer and Gambler will be posted tomorrow.. Robin...

I'm so glad you are pleased with your new babies. We will miss them but I know you will enjoy them even more then us. I can't wait to watch his progress. I'm home from my trailride, briefly, soon to be off on another one. Here is a pic of Vern and I with friends at one of the watering holes along the trail. The black is a TWH mare IN HEAT!. Vern is such a good boy. Never batted an eye at her the whole time. Now my other girlfriends gelding we rode with on the other hand.......him and that mare were screaming at each other and carrying on. Sure seemed screwed up to me but I didn't care....and neither did Vern. He is such a good boy. ......did I say that already? Oh by the way.....your pics of me here SUCK!...LOL. YUCK! Guess I should have showered before you came. I'm gonna print one and pin it on my fridge. Keep out!...........and should pin one on my shower. Come in!..........LOL. sheeeeesh I'm ugly.

Robin, why didn't you tell all the folks out there in internet land about the fabulous journey to and fro with the "BelginWalker" and her colt? Never left nothing up that way that I need, especially the bits of rubber and steel belted radial in Saginaw, that land the locals have forgotten!

Guy at Sears-"What are you going to put thses tires on?" Me-"Rims" Sears-"OK, What are we going to put the tires on?" Me-"Two Rims that I will bring in here." And on and on and on for 10 minutes then... Guy at Sears-" oh, ok we're going the put the tires on rims and you're going to take'em with ya" Me-"you got it Einstein" Then he looked at his name on his shirt and printed his name to the bill which was actually a thingytail napkin from Betty Boobs house of Ill Repute, Main St. Saginaw, Mi. What a town!!!! :-)
