Good-bye Mel.........Hello Miss T

I have discovered that the only thing you can count on in life - is change.  My dear friend Melody recently moved to Arizona to help take care of her aging parents.  She was VERY concerned @ her horse Tia.....as Arizona is NOT known for their grassy plains.......

             Here is Melody & her horse of over 30 years  - Piedmont




My dream has always been to own several horses - BUDDHA will always be # 1 :) - so when the opportunity presented it self.....I bought Miss T.  As you already know she is a beautiful 11y/o Paint Quarter horse & can be ridden both English & Western.

After Pieddy passed - Melody spotted Tia who was being boarded @ the barn & was up for sale.

                  Miss M & Miss T looking all photogenic :))

               Here she is running around during free lunge time.

            Nor sleet, snow or rain kept Melody from seeing her girl.

Mel celebrated 20 years of being @ the barn ....so I included her on Bud's 20th B'day cake :))

So, now I have 2 horses that are very well behaved, a pleasure to ride, & will keep me on my toes physically & mentally. 

I am very happy that Melody was able to sell her house (especially in today's market) & move to a warmer state to help her folks - BUT - I am very sad for me.... who will miss her smiling face on Saturday mornings, along w/ her doggie tales of the week, not to mention all her support & love she gave me over the years.
