    How do you tell someone...

    That you like/love them? We talk on the phone sometimes, and sometimes on messenger. We help each other out on Facebook "mini games" as I call them. I just met him in Feb. but he has been on my mind ever since. When we first met we flirted back and forth, and just had fun being stupid that whole...

    Dye or leave as is? Mane and tail on my gelding

    My boy is a silver smokey black. He has a chocolate colored mane/tail. His first show he was fine. The second show I dyed him back dark as he was so sunbleached. But my friend thought that dying it dark made him look like a faded out black instead of his pretty color. He will be showing at...
