Spirit joined the herd yesterday. She was only 4 miles away so the fact that I blew a tire on the horse trailer wasn't such a bad deal. We knew something would make this 8 mile two way trip an all day affair, the tire was it. However, she got on the trailer unlike Apache, who I had to walk to his new home.
Spirit is supposed to be for my sister who basically has had no involvement with the horses in over 1/2 a decade. He horses have been pasture ornaments. The only time her family is really involved, is when we go out of town. So we shall see. If we were to get a new horse Spirit would have been the one, actually, we kinda made the decision it would be Spirit.
The positive side is we one again have 3 ridable horses so we can take a guess out. I refuse to take lawn ornaments out. Our friend who we got Spirit from knows us well and refused to sell her to my sister right off because she is also suspicious at how this will go, so they are leasing her. This will also give our friend a horse to ride with us.
