The storm brought us to the realization that we could avoid the mirrors if we shose but we were still getting older. Today, some great friends came and took my three horses to give them new homes. I will miss them terribly but know we did the right thing for them. I cried so I know I am still a loving, caring person just getting older and trying to downsize some before the next storm passes through my life.....and boy do I get them...
For those who remember Gus, he will be going to my contractors farm who has been eyeballing him for a while now....just so you know, Gus turned 20 on April 12th.
Love to all,
Kay _________________

Hard to loose good friends, even the four legged kind. You are not getting older, just better. Take care of yourself. _________________

Hang on to all the good memories Kay! We are lucky to be able to grow older - many never have the opportunity! It isn't easy to accept our limitations - but the decisions we make and choose are better than the ones that are made for us if we wait too long. I hope Gus loves his new home... _________________

All three of my babies are being spoiled rotten...not that they were not all ready spoiled rotten... they now have a personal groom...who rides them daily, hoses off the sweat...and makes them look like they are going to Sunday School ....they will not get to stay here but for a couple of months and then will go on to further spoiling...it has eased the pain of giving them up to know they are happy.....

Of course I remember Gus. He was the horse you rode all the time when we first became members of woofmang. Isn't 20 a pretty ripe old age for a horse?
Seeing them leave with their new families must have been very difficult for you but it sounds like they're going to be getting loving care just like when you had them. As for getting older. it sure beats the alternative.
I'll be thinking about you. _________________
