Thank you all for your sweet, sweet thoughts. I, too, think Gayle is loving on all those precious babies who were already at the Rainbow Bridge. Services were yesterday and, of course, a drain on all of us. But the services could not have been more perfect. From the words of our pastor to...

It is with a broken heart that I write to tell you that Gayle died yesterday of unknown cause. Kathy and I had gone to Canton yesterday morning and Gayle left afterwards to go into Paris to buy horse feed. He came back and fed these precious little horses that he loved so very much. And he...

Wish we could find a brand of shredded beet pulp that didn't have larger pieces in it - some of them, when soaked, look like a piece of old shoe leather and are just as tough. So I pick through it, dry, then look again after soaking.

Chubby was blessed to have you all to love and care for him. Our deep sympathy for your loss.

Yes, very slow. Thought it could be my computer as also very slow when I upload some reports to email (business). Maybe it's something to do with cyberspace.

Our deepest sympathy and prayers to all of you and your family at this sad time. Gayle and Jackie

Water buckets usually stay up on the hooks but the 6 month old colt, Cody, likes to scratch his little fanny which makes the bucket sway back and forth and usually spill some water. Last night there was a continual thump, thump, thump coming from the barn. Could see from the window, there was...

We have a yearling who practically chases me across the pen to see if I have another treat of wormer. The 5 day Safeguard dose was like dessert to him. The other yearling, babies and one mare are no problem but not as eager. One mare acts like the devil is coming at her when I start to give...

Gotta love those baby blues. Have a silver dapple mare with blue eyes, her yearling colt has them also. And we have a little sorrel paint filly with a blaze whose eyes are crystal blue.

Wind and rain here - only about 1-3/4" of that. Not what we expected from all forecasts. But we never thought we be in a tropical storm warning in the Red River Valley. Ha!! Thanks the Lord for sparing lives.

Our church had a special called prayer meeting last night to pray for all in harm's way, and to ask, if it was the Lord's will, that this storm weaken and not cause the impact and devestation of a category 5. We are located in Northeast Texas about 115 miles NE of Dallas. We have only 5 acres...

Ann - We are so happy that you and your minis are safe. The posts from Wisteria have kept us informed. Keep your chin up and know your and others are in our prayers. G & J

Someone in Oklahoma had several minis stolen but with all the publicity regarding the theft, they were returned basically unharmed. There were several suspects, as I understand, and don't know if anyone was charged. The gate was locked and the lock looked undisturbed but the gates looked a...

What great news that all are safe.

Thank you from two native Texans. It is a great State and we're proud of our govenor for stepping in so quickly. We're in NE Tx and don't have a great number of people yet. There's a meeting/training tonight for shelter volunteers if/when they do arrive. Our hospital is on alert for...

Alison, what a great effort on your part and others also. Out of all this tragedy, it's wonderful to see so many caring people getting involved with helping the displaced families and their animals. Thank you!

Oh Monette - What a wonderful end to a beautiful effort by you all to help Ann. That baby is precious. So glad the trip was safely made and cleanup was started for Ann. What a long haul it's going to be for everyone affected. Blessings to all.

Forgot to add --- Get involved. There is training this week locally for assisting at any shelters that may be set up here - Paris is a town of about 25,000. Hospital is on alert here - received one patient so far transferred from another site. EMS personnel have gone to help triage...

Well said shminifancier! We saw people on their roof today tell rescuers that all who "wanted" to be rescued had already left. They are begging people, telling them there will be no power, water, food for months. Lt. Gen Honore in charge of the Guard put it pretty straight. A week ago today...

That is so wonderful to hear. Another clip touched us - a helicopter rescue of two men on a roof by Coast Guard, National Guard, Army - not sure who - but all doing great jobs. The basket picked up one man while another waited on the roof with the rescuer and a little dog. My heart was almost...
