Greetings from Central Florida

Druydess · 12-02-2007, 08:09 PM

Holiday Greetings everyone!

I'm a few days new on Horsetopia Forum and wanted to say hi to everyone. Seems like a great group of people here...
I, like several here I've been reading about, have always wanted a horse, never could have one, and a few years ago, at 40 years old, that dream came true with a beautiful flaxen chestnut Arabian named Ha le Firestorm because I was in the right place at the right time. A truly elegant creature with a kind soul.
Last year, I bought a gray Arab, DS Magic's Royalty with a gray filly on the ground, and recently a friend gave me a beautiful black-pointed bay Paso Fino. 6 weeks ago, after contracting to buy my first Arab's little sister, La Legacy de Solei, I rescued a baby sooty palomino quarter horse, who was literally, starving to death, and has recovered well...
Sooo...the dream may have happened a little late, but it sure has made up for lost time!
I am currently enjoying training them, as they are all young except for the Paso, and use Clinton Anderson methods primarily...also some Richard Shrake and Parelli.. I recently started my gray Arab, Magic, under saddle without so much as a muscle twitch. I'm very proud of her.
I can't tell you how much joy each one of these creatures has brought to me.

Best wishes to all,

Dru
