Gentle Gemini



A little TLC and Mr. Gentle Gemini looks much better.  Probably a lot less painful too with all the burrs out of his mane and tail.  My little Ms Lokey next to the new love of her life. :)
Love both of them.  Both are lovers, always wanting attention too.  They will be just as spoiled as everything else on this property.  Not sure yet who's the boss.  Gemini loves his food to say the least.  Almost done with both stalls so they can be inside on the super cold nights.  Poor D Bear says I'm working him like a borrowed mule.  We've both been so busy working on the barn that I haven't thought about Christmas.  My birthday, anniversary and Christmas are out in the paddock. :)  Off to go love on the horses. :)

OUR OWN BLACK BEAUTY

Well we were a one horse family until yesterday.  D Bear and I went to buy saddles and LOOK at a Saddle/Quarter horse gelding.  He rode him first and then I did.  Oh what an animal!  Very well trained and he will train me as well.  He is kid safe.  He and my little red headed mare will be doing their pecking order for a couple days and I'm sure he will test it often.  As for now she's the boss.  Aren't all red heads like that?  He is a little rough looking as he has been rolling in the mud and running through the cockle burrows but he's still a beautiful animal.  He will look different when we get him cleaned up.
Let me know what you think of the new addition.
