Welcome "Little Red"
After a rather uneventful trip (except for the manure in the back of my Honda Element) home, our new mini horse has settled into life on Bee Haven Acres. He was a bit bewildered upon arrival....everything so new...but, quickly made friends with Oliver Twist.
Oliver did his usual "teeth-chomping" as an act of submission to Little Red, who is 3 months older and a bit bigger than Oliver.
They have moved into the same larger stall together and will soon be inseparable, I suspect.
I must say,however, that I was more nervous than I ever remember being as a new "Mommy". I know that after a few days, this nervous stomach will wear off, and life will become routine for all of us.

There's No Place Like Home!
Never was a quote more true! After six days of travel I was so glad to be back home in my comfort zone. I did have a ball at the Maryjane's Farm Fair 2009 and met some great gals. But, oh, did I miss home! So, let's get caught up. My little miniature...
