Moving back to FL - thank goodness

SEsporthorse · 07-17-2008, 11:18 PM

Hi everyone,

I have finished up my thesis for graduate school this week THANK GOD!

I will be returning to my beloved home - FLA at the beginning of August.

Wanted to find out if anyone on here is from the Central FL area? I am moving to Winter Garden - out near Disney to manage a farm for a year before I head to Medical school.

I have plans to start a training program, and maybe take on a few boarders.

If anyone is in the central FL area - do you have a good farrier that does not charge an arm and a leg?? We have one in the area ---but my horse had a bad experience with him a long time ago, and I would not like to use him again.

I am also going to be looking for a safe trail horse for my fiance. He loves leopard appys for some reason -that would be a bonus. If anyone has one for sale let me know.

I AM SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bring your rain gear...........its summertime in Florida !!

Sorry I can't help ya w/ a farrier, I live in SW Fla.

Congrats on finishing school.

SEsporthorse · 07-17-2008, 11:28 PM

Thanks! I am not quite done yet - still have to present a seminar and defend my work...but hopefully that will be a breeze.

Heard its been raining quite a bit the past few days! Ahh...how I miss looking at my watch every day and saying "time for rain, get the horses in!"

My fiance is already there missing me like crazy!

p.s. my price range is probably $1,500 at the absolute MAX right now...not sure if said horse would work

SEsporthorse · 07-17-2008, 11:39 PM

I just remembered why Nate wants a leopard...he is a HUGE HUGE HUGE Seminole fan and wants a horse like Renegade

Yeah...I wanted Gem Twist, but I never got him

Yea, those stupid Gator fans....

SE- When I was a little girl, I wanted Renegade too. Its about the only redeeming quality FSU has.

Now I own lots and lots of Alberts!!

Hey Barn Bum-

Ok, I am all done now

LBmare · 07-18-2008, 09:51 AM

I know of three farriers that might travel out your way, they basically go everywhere pretty much. Price range for a trim from 15 to 25, shoes up to $150 area.

If you want I can PM you their contact info.

And YES! I have many people in this area that would FREAK over those prices, so they would be getting a bunch of business!!!!

LBmare · 07-18-2008, 08:11 PM

I will definitely make sure to get numbers and names to you this week.

BarnBum · 07-18-2008, 08:32 PM

Just to clarify guys and gals......... I hate football. So I am neutral when to comes the the FSU and U-of-F games !!

pasopony · 07-21-2008, 04:23 PM

HEY, Renney is a wonderful horse!!! Ya don't see any alligators performing in Hogtown, do ya???

I have an undergraduate degree from UF and Graduate degrees from FSU. I try to ignore the whole football thing.

Congrats on winding up your program.

jtfer1968 · 07-21-2008, 07:09 PM

I am in the market for a new farrier too. The one I was using is moving back to New Jersey and I am so bummed!! He is awesome.

SEsporthorse · 07-21-2008, 08:05 PM

Where in CFL are you?

PaintsQH · 07-22-2008, 08:48 PM

I might have a nice, safe sane trail gelding if you could handle a sorrel QH. I could always spray paint him. I will know by the end of next month if the lady leasing him is going to buy him. All depends on her hubby
