What a cutie. You guys look great together. I'm glad things have worked out well between you two.

Thank you!

It's so funny, after the very rough start and everything, we're actually a good match.

6 years?!

6 YEARS?!

Omg. I did not realize it was that long. I remember silently cheering for you on the sidelines when you got her...I can't believe that was six years ago!

Yes, 6 years as of March... We've both grown up a lot in that time!

Thanks for posting! You and her and that barn and arena are all beautiful!

Thanks :)

She is just the prettiest thing around, and she knows it (and -- mostly -- doesn't take advantage, though one pithy horsewoman I know teases me by saying, "I don't think you would have kept her if she wasn't so pretty.")

The photos are from where I board, which is a pretty nice place, could use a bit more turnout and a bit less... oddness from the BO. The video is from goddessfarmer's barn, where I'd love to board but where it's very, very difficult to get into a permanent stall.

Love your hunting season get-up! If they have issues seeing you (are not a deer/elk/whathaveye) they shouldn't be out hunting! I will note you missed the opportunity to have neon orange leg wraps/boots.

That's definitely my favorite view year-round: scenery framed by ears.

Oh, we have the neon-orange splint boots now! It's quite ridiculous.

If you are on FB, there's a whole photo group called "As Seen Through Horses' Ears" with members from all over the world.

The ensemble is complete! ... well, I guess you COULD go for a neon orange bridle.

I'm kindof on FB. I may have to look it up.

I've really enjoyed following you and Feronia over the past (has it really been???) six years! She has a much more mature look to her now. Cheers to Quietann and Feronia!

Thanks!

Yes, the little golden mare needed to grow up a bit. Like a lot of Morgans, she was a "late maturer" mentally; she was 9 when I bought her but regularly taken for a 4 year old, oops. And I *still* get asked if she's a "young one" sometimes just because of how she carries herself when she's a bit excited.

I understand! Folks get the ages mixed up on my horses all the time- the older one is frisky and energetic, and the younger one is quiet and cuddly.

Feronia is ever the gorgeous golden girl!
