Rick had suggested we run over to Lincoln City this weekend so I could see Lance and Brian could play with his friend. When I called Lance's breeder yesterday to see if she and her daughter would be at the barn, she told me she hadn't gotten Lance out at all last week. He had been so fresh in his stall that she didn't think she could handle him; she was going to recruit her trainer, who was there yesterday giving lessons, to help her. She said if we came today he would at least get walked two days in a row; she has taken a second job and would not be able to get him out again the rest of the week. That was no good; that was no good at all. But what to do? There's no room at the inn here until Horton leaves. Still, it made sense to pick up Lance while we were there today instead of driving out again next Sunday, so last night, Rick and I put our heads together. Rick thought to call a client of his with a small boarding stable in the area, and she said she could make room for him short-term. I'm a happy girl!

YAY!!!!! A very happy new year :-D
Hmm, but which ear worm? Your kind of horse or did you whisper something in one of those handsome ears?
In any event, congrats! Looks like Lance will finally get consistent hand walking to prepare him for the whole new world he is about to learn about.
Just got back from hand-walking and riding him; very happy, indeed!
"Come a little bit closer; you're my kind of man, so big and so strong...." ;-)
