We've been very busy around here lately. I recently decided to sell my big horse, Skokie, and buy something more my size. Skokie ended up going to the Master of the Rockbridge Hunt in Virginia! I hope he does very well out there. I think it should suit him perfectly once he gets into the swing of things. With his dark bay coat and Seattle Slew and Secretariat lineage, he certainly looks the part of a well-bred Eastern Thoroughbred. I took photos of him on his last day here and he was so magnificent I almost regretted selling him, but I reminded myself that Skokie and I have never really clicked, and he's so big I get sore after riding him for more than an hour or two. Nevertheless, he looked as though he were posing for a statue in Kentucky Horse Park.
The day before Skokie left, my friend Tiffany and I drove down near Trinidad and picked up a young Morgan gelding I'd looked at a few weeks earlier. He's about 18 months old and I named him Pepperjack. He's absolutely adorable. I wanted a filly, but I couldn't pass this little guy up. Look at that sweet face! He's curious about everything and not the least bit skittish. He's going to be a lot of fun to train!
