and here is a better description of all that is involved in it better than I could write... My daughter started it a young age and enjoyes teaching it to kids. They had a good vaulting team while she was active in the 4-H and took it to Kentucky on the big 4-H event there. Her and my wife had a ball there for a week. The most gentle horse I've been around. She don't care for our water yet, but we put molasses in it and she is drinking now but still don't care for it yet. Not sure if its just to cold for her, water is warm in Charleston, SC and to me taste like sulfur, but up here its very cold and much different taste. We gave her electrolytes also so she will be fine...
Huge feet. I'll take some better pictures of her later or when Heidi gets back up here in 2 weeks. She will be working her....they use her on the trail also. Believe it or not, the people that first had her got her for dressage, but she is sure not what we are used to seeing in dressage.
We had a friend that was headed to Florida to pick up a bunch of horses and he had and empty spot in the trailer. so he told us he would pick her up on the way back up. He called yesterday and says, Hey, I'm about 1/2 hour from Heidi, can she be ready. We called her, she was at the big tennis meet in in Isle of Palms, SC. They let her leave and 45 minutes she was loaded and on her way home. They drive straight thru so she got here at 1:00 yesterday. She was laying down this morning. Pretty tired girl....
We were going to drive down and get pick her up for Heidi, but my buddy offered so no point in putting all that time on the road if you don't have to. It would have been 2 days down for me and 2 back. We usually stop at a horse place we know and stay overnight...easier on the horse and us....not to mention about $750 bucks for fuel....
My wife has a smile from ear to ear, she is getting her riding partner back up north... We may still fly down and drive up with her as she is pulling up her jeep with her truck and a motorcycle. Air Force ships the rest up..... I'm thinking, he lets take a short cut Skyline drive and the Blueridge Parkway, I'll follow on the bike......Beautiful ride thru the mountains...... All this is happening fast than expected as she had 51 days of leave still available, so she gets to leave April 25 but her time is really up June 19. She will be going to UCONN here to finish her degree, then go back in as a commissioned officer like my son George did, fact he helped set most of his up. Meantime They need a Jet engine tech at his base at his base in the civil service so she is jumping on that for the summer.
They need a level 5 tech, and she is Level 7, so they snapped her up.
Busy girl for sure.... She is like having a capture tornado in your house.... Always flat out.......Full of hell and always laughing. I miss that part actually.....

Nice horse. You say she had it shipped up. What is involved with shipping a horse? UPS
As it should be with any girl and dad! Thanks for letting us all see this, and tell Heidi good luck with her students!
