Frosty Pebbles Two

Another horse? Yes. Lets see. We are a little behind in our reporting. Did I tell you about Mia? Hmm maybe not.... or how bout Ghost? Nope, definitely not. Ok.... backing up.

I sought to buy a riding horse for this summer. I was looking after the first of the year, and wanted to find one that was already started (broke to ride). I had some pictures that Donna had sent me, and after looking them over some more, and studying the blood lines, I called to see if we could strike a deal. The horse, Frosty Pebbles Two, belonged to her sister, and her sister had changed her mind.

So I bought Mia. First part of March. I bought her from Craig, the president pro tem of FAHR (foundation appaloosa registry). She is a blue roan snow cap of the Toby lines. The first time I was in the pasture with her I knew she had something special. She knew she was going home with me. I don't know how she knew, but she knew.

I rode Mia across Michigan in June.

Just before I left for the Shore to Shore ride, I acquired AR Ghostwind Feather from Donna. The trainer picked him up for me and took him to his place on the other side of Bowling Green for training.

Today, I'm going up to get Pebbles. Seems Donna's sister didn't do the trail riding she had hoped to do this summer and decided to sell the mare.

I'm still waiting to hear from Debra H. up in Rosscommon, about FR Lucky. Another leopard mare of exceptional blood lines.

And from Mike and Rose, over in Illinois, about Echoes Amazing Grace. Yet another leopard mare.

The search for a shuffler continues.
