Your critters in the lower pasture seem fine. No trouble while I was gone. Is Congo behaving himself? I have talked to a few folks who board horses so have some idea of the price range. Prices are all over the place. Since I have a humble facility I expect to be at the lower end of the scale. There is rough board, rough board with special care, etc. etc. You should think about what you do for and with Shakespear on a given day or week and what you would want me to do. If we are both clear on expectations I figure we can both be happy and he can be warmer but still content. For example how many times per day/week you give hay, feed, groom,pick his feet, exercise visit, pet etc. Since we know all this changes during the course of the winter think about hard winter versus mild. I am figuring my hay, barn & water and care. You provide feed, any extras, medications, wormer etc. you would want him to have but I will keep to his normal schedule unless we agree otherwise. He IS an old guy and I want the move to be as smooth as possible. Are you still ready to ride Brava--should we make a date for me and my lunge line to come for a visit? Maybe you have already got her going? Sounds like fun. Becky Hi Kriss, I left a phone message but since I have a minute at work thought this might have a better chance of getting to you.
