I've wanted to add a kid-safe horse to our farm for my son to ride, so yesterday we drove 2 hours to look at Sarg - a retired Cincinnati Mounted Police Horse. He's thin and in need of the grazing we have in abundance here, but I'm so excited!! He'll be a wonderful companion to our blind horse, Bobby, and a terrific buddy for my son to ride from time to time. He can live out his remaining days here with all the grass he can eat and daily affection a little boy can give. For his age, he's quite spry and I think will be feeling pretty good with some fattening up.

I'm still thinking of adding 1 more - a Thoroughbred mare that's being retired from Polo. We're going to look at her today. I think this will round out our little herd of horses.

This is Sarg - sooo thin, poor guy!

Went and looked at the mare today and W.O.W. I'm in love.

She's beyond gorgeous and has an awesome personality. Her name is Gitana (Gypsy) and her picture didn't do her justice at all. I'm going to pick her up tomorrow - I'll post pics once I get her home.
 
Too bad horses aren't like chickens.... the hubby doesn't notice when I add a chicken or two.....
