Since Judy’s first horse Sugar foundered just after the big ice storm last year and had to be put down we’ve been on the lookout for a new one. Finally, after almost two years I think we’ve found one.

Misty is a 7 year old registered paint mare and measures about 14.5 hands. A horse’s height is measured in “hands” at 4″ to the hand. While the only color other than black on Misty is a star on her forehead and a white snip on her lip she is still a 100 percent Paint. She is very gentle, easy to groom and shoe and her and Boomer get along great. About the only trouble we’ve had with her was her initial reluctance to get in our trailer but we’ve overcome that problem.

Now we’re hoping to get back to the enjoyment we had earlier when taking the horses out for morning rides around our area. Nothing beats the time spent on the back of a horse, even woodcarving.

I don’t know, I do not ride horseback, but if You’re having fun it’s great.
