I did some shopping

[Trinket12]

Deposit is paid, now to figure out the haulage from the Island to my barn!

 

[Trinket12]

I also have to figure out how to attach a picture! But she’s a 15.2 Percheron, Quarter Horse cross. I’m in love

 

[dogatemysalad]

Sounds lovely. You really need to work out the picture thingy.

 

[Meowy Catkin]

Yay!

 

[Trinket12]

Hope this works!

 

[Meowy Catkin]

Yes, it worked!

Very nice. Congratulations!

 

[Trinket12]

She pretty much matches everything we were looking, very calm and sensible. In my original budget (thank goodness, as I have to buy tack and pretty much everything else!) as part of my trial we had a 45 min trail ride, and it was a real trail ride through a forest!! We saw deer and didn't phase her at all

I'm excited, but also a little overwhelmed. But have a great coach and lots of support from everyone at my barn so I know it's going to be OK.

Good luck, i hope you have many happy years with her.

Hello! I am still trying to work this whole thing out, but having followed your other thread I am so glad things worked out for you! The picture you attached looks really lovely and I hope things go well with her!

 

[Rumtytum]

She's beautiful! Wishing you both much happiness - and lots of photo updates for us of course 😊
