Several years ago when my daughter first started riding, we came down to Angela's old barn...back when the horses & cows lived together down a dirt road you couldn't get a trailer through. We bought a pink pony … actually he was white with pink skin & hair down to his nose...a Welsh Cross. We named him Carolina Cotton & had him for a couple years. He was the BEST pony ever & he taught Anabel how to ride & how to take care of him. We loved him dearly & still do. Broke our hearts the day we said good-bye to him. Anabel got too big for Cotton so we took him back to Angela's barn which was now a bigger barn with a round pen & an arena down the road. We traded Cotton plus some cash for Moses. Moses was a six year old Driftwood Buckskin Quarter Horse. If you looked up Quarter Horse in the dictionary, there would be a picture of Moses...he is that pretty. I remember that day because I rode a lot of horses & there were some nice ones, but Moses was special. Moses was beautiful & brave & smart & I knew he was the horse we had to have. Angela drove a hard bargain that day, but we brought him home. She said if we ever want to sell him to bring him back to her & we would, but we won't ever sell him. Anabel has taken Moses from a cow pony to a hunter jumper to a dressage horse. He is pretty fancy now & she loves him madly. He's not perfect, but he's pretty close They have grown up together & Anabel would tell you she wouldn't have another horse for anything. So between our first pony Cotton and Moses we have had the very best experience we could ask for with Angela. After all these years I still look at her stock & she has kept in touch with us (she loves Moses & probably wishes she still had him!) through email & Facebook. I have referred friends to her many times over & I wish her all the blessings in life. Regards, Sonja & Anabel & Moses |
