Ok long story short I am mentoring at a lady's farm this summer to get some foaling experience.
I have always only ever had minis and these were QH's and Paints. I told her I had to seriously think of selling Dally as she is now broke for everything but cart, and I think a little kid would get a kick out of her. I love her so much, don't get me wrong, but the urge to RIDE is horrible.
So this lady tells me that I will love the pony mare in the one field. So off I go to see her.At this point I have no intentions of anything, I am just going to look at a pretty pony.
Man did I fall in love instantly. She is the perfect size. Her temperament is wonderful. She is three. She is not broke, but I can manage that.
So I agonized. I knew hubby would say no instantly. So I mentioned it halfheartedly and he said YES, if I sold Dally and came up with the money myself I could have her. We have to re-do the property anyway so this gives me an excuse to upgrade
So while worrying about where to get the extra money (she is more than I would have been asking for Dally), the lady emails me and tells me we will trade ponies and Dally can be her son's pony and her niece could ride her. I about died right there.
So after foaling season is done and mentoring is over(where I can play with "Indy" all summer long), we will be swapping the ponies.
I am so incredibly excited. The bonus is Dally will be down the street from my in laws so I can see her whenever I want!
So without further ado...here is Indigo, or 'Indy' for short.
For some reason I never got pics of her other side!
