In 1995 William, Bryan and I received a free horse. A registered Arab colt soon to be gelding. Free is a lovely word but when it comes to horses it has no meaning. After receiving this horse we needed a place to keep it, a shelter to protect it and of course tack to train it. We are fortunate enough to grow our own hay so that cost was minimal. When the free horse arrived (Regal man) he was very wild and he was terrified of people, not a problem we got him a companion horse to ease the transition. The mare we bought was a beautiful purebred Arab mare Machisma.  That did not work to train Regal Man but it did give me a horse that I could work with. We sold regal man to a lady jockey as he would never be big enough for anyone in our family. In 1997 Bill & I were married and what else could I buy for a wedding present but another purebred mare Sralinka. We continued to raise and show Arabian horses until age and health made us take a look at where we wanted to go. In 2009 we decided to Geld our beloved Stallion and give him the opportunity to be part of the herd and not only is he enjoying life more so are we.</div> </td> </tr></table></body>
