There's Marge, who is a 10 year old mare, and her baby. At first we were told the baby was a boy, but upon closer inspection she's definitely a beautiful little lady! Her name is now Maggie. She's got the most elegant long legs and pretty neck. She's going to be quite a looker when she grows up! But the first order of business will be to get comfortable enough to try eating out of the hands of those creepy humans... :)
Of the boys who just arrived, there is of course Homer Simpson, and the old boss Monty Burns. Homer looks like adult Sugarfoot on steroids. He's got a super wide frame and an enormous head, but itty bitty short stocky tree trunk legs. I haven't gotten a chance to take pictures of the new guys yet, but here's Homer's picture from the day we were up in Bloomfield helping out with the processing. Talk about disproportionate horse...
Tomorrow, the lady from Silver City arrives to see our training and of course fall in love with one of the horses. Should be fun!
