Addendum, clarification to earlier post today -- "Laurie's horse is here."

Actually, my best-half Laurie has two horses. Maddie's half-brother is named Pete.

Prior to our cross-state move, Laurie trailered her horses Maddie and Pete, to board with good friends close to our soon-to-be new farm. Whereas Maddie's with us now, Pete's still boarding because our friends' seven--year-old son took a shine to Pete. Laurie's been giving the youngster riding lessons on Pete in exchange for all the board. Pete will move in with us sometime before next winter.

Pete:
At three days of age.

Thank You Deuxcents. He will. The boy likes to stand by Pete's round pen and talk to him. Pete likes that. George McGovern Jul 2025 #6
