How right you are...I wouldn't be able to give it away...without having to pay they're feed bill for a year! I just had to do that with a 27 year old Arab that I had resqued when he was 22. I'm afraid he's not going to make it much past this year...but he has had the life of leasure for the past several years! And Lots of hugs!

I sold an 8 y/o foundation QH gelding this past spring. He was farm bred; had shown (& done very well)extensively at FQH shows. Placed him on Craigslist (just until I got "good pics"). Had an email before I got home from work that day. Corresponded with a lady for a week or 2. She finally came out to look and we made a deal before they left that day. I advertised for 8.5 K, sold for 8 K. He is to be a "trail horse". Lawyer's wife & she wanted a well trained horse. One ad, one caller: Yeah, I lucked out. Even better, she adores him and regularly sends glowing email reports. Dat makes me happy!
