Morgan Horses
When I moved here 9 years ago, I was introduced to the Morgan Horse breed. I had 2 other horses which were not Morgans and was boarding them at a Morgan show barn. So we decided to start a small breeding operation once we made the improvements on our major fixer-upper property. Soon after, we found our first 2 mares already in foal. The next Spring, the foals were born and I was hooked. This is Tommy with his brand new halter.
Over the next 6 years, I added more mares and helped them raise 12 foals. Some of the mares I purchased with a foal at their side. I also had a beautiful show horse named Phoebe. The entire experience was incredibly rewarding for me. Women either have a passion for horses or not. I definitely fall into the first group.
Angel was my last foal and she is now 3 years old. She is a half sister to Phoebe who is no longer with me. This is a photo of my dressage trainer working with her. She really needs a new person who can give her all that she deserves because my focus is on my own riding horse, Beau.
This week is the Morgan Grand National and World Championships in Oklahoma City. I went to the show for 5 years and had great experiences there. As I'm no longer involved in the show world, I am enjoying watching friends on a live feed broadcast on USEF.
What a joy my horses have been for me, filling my soul in a way that not everyone can understand. If you have a passion, it's an awesome experience if you can fulfill it in some way.
