All of our horses offered for sale are owned by and reside at Evening Shade Farm, Shelbyville Tennessee. We do not offer for sale consignment, horse sale or trade horses. If we don't believe enough in a horse to invest in him/her with our money, why should we expect you to believe enough in that same horse to consider investing in him/her with your money to have as your next companion and trail/pleasure partner? And we would not consider placing any horse until we've lived with them long enough to know who they really are and how they respond to all the many different aspects of their life. That's not something anyone can know in just a few days or weeks, even though some sellers will take your money for a horse before they've had them long enough to need the farrier - sometimes before they've even seen them in person. These are not horses that we just got in last week or month, from some horse sale, or long distance by the trailer load  from some "horse traders/ brokers" who told us how "trail worthy" they are supposed to be. Ask any potential seller where and from whom their horses come as well as how long they've owned and ridden them personally because you have a need, and a right, to know.  We know all our horses well. These are horses that we (David and Lisa) personally checked out and tested before choosing and purchasing them. On average, we look at 12-15 horses to find the "one" that we will ultimately choose to bring home, spending most of our "spare time" traveling all over meeting new people and horses in search of those really special horse partners. With the rare exception, all of our horses are registered "Tennessee Walking" or "Spotted Saddle" as we have found that year after year after year they are the best all around trail/pleasure breeds to be found, bar none. Most of our horses for sale are born and raised here, purchased as yearlings and raised here, and have lived with us sometimes two years and more. Their mouth/teeth are done professionally, they are up to date on vaccinations and wormed every other month, eat Winner's Cup Advantage feed and top quality hay twice daily, are shod and ridden by us, and are a part of our daily lives and our family. As the pictures and videos will show, our gaited trail horses are never ridden in "long shank bits", "gag type bits", "twisted wire bits", or any other harsh style of "Walking Horse" bit and/or using lots of hold with tight reins/curb. All of our gaited trail horses are taught to work first in a plain "snaffle bit" with no curb strap/chain for a very light touch. Only when they fully know and understand what is expected are they finished off with a very mild "Argentine" style snaffle for that last little bit of primping. Our horses have normal feet with NO long toes or low heels, NO weighted or oversized shoes and are shod to their natural conformation the same as any normal trail horse of any breed should be. Because every horse is a unique individual, our descriptions, videos, and personal insights are original and specific to that horse and not cookie cutter style with just the name changed or some slight variation inserted here or there. Every horse is described as honestly and accurately as possible. We can relate how a particular horse behaves in our experiences because we know them all very well. Lisa and I are the ones that do the feeding, clean their stalls, and groom/shoe/ride them each personally. These all important hours with them are not entrusted to anyone else. We will never tell you that any horse we offer is "BOMBPROOF" or resort to "trader gimmicks/ tricks" but can tell you that our horses are ridden and tested regularly by Lisa and me, not some hired "cowboy/etc", in actual real world trail riding situations and they have proven themselves to be as solid and steady as any living/breathing horses could be. Because we start out with innately calm/laid back NON-SPOOKY horses, they don't have to be "trained" not to spook or scare, so we spend our time riding and having fun teaching new trail skills. We will not embellish with bogus terms or exaggerated claims just to get someone to unwittingly place their safety and trust in a particular horse. You are welcome to come here and test ride any horse you like, pictures and videos are available for viewing, pre-purchase exams before a horse leaves our farm by any vet of your choice (at buyers expense) are welcome, and references from previous buyers will gladly be furnished. Just like you, we want the fit/relationship between horse and human to be a total success so we'll have numerous questions for you just as you will for us. Each of our gaited trail horses have their dental records, shoeing records, AVID microchip registration, a current Coggins test, and are furnished with a brand new health certificate for traveling. Horses are livestock and there are inherent risks involved with any horse you purchase. If you are not prepared to accept those risks, please do not consider a horse from us. No warranties or guarantees are expressed or implied. Thank you for visiting our site.

As the videos will show, our horses are without any doubt trail ridden in the real world of hills, water, logs
dogs, etc. We feel that it's very important to actually ride and use these horses on real trails and we show you
with videos which are taken by us (David and Lisa) out on real trail rides. We don't stand on or crawl under
our horses (we could), but we do regularly expose them to real trail challenges which is what truly matters.
I almost always take the trail videos from horseback while either sitting on and/or riding down the trail. The
views will sometimes be a little shaky even though I am most often riding hands-free guiding with my legs so
that I can use both hands to "stabilize" the camera. Maybe someday I'll get some high tech hat-camera...Ha


Every one of our horses is grain fed twice daily for as long as they live here to promote optimum health/fitness &
 so they will feel/look their very best. They will look just like their pictures if you come here to see/meet them in
person and most likely will be even FATTER. In 40 plus years spent around hundreds of horses, I've never met
 an under fed/under nourished horse that wasn't "kid/ beginner/ husband broke" because they just don't feel good.
Years ago I asked a knowledgeable horseman "What's your favorite kind of horse?" The immediate answer... FAT!
I've never forgotten that conversation and we couldn't agree with any statement any more whole-heartedly.


Each one of our horses carries an AVID Microchip for their protection and safety. These are implanted by our
personal vet (invisible/painless/permanent/tamper-resistant), can be registered nationally and traceable, forever.
This provides a foolproof way to protect your next horse and undeniably proves the exact identity of each horse...
Each one of our horses available for sale is officially registered with papers from the Tennessee Walking Horse
 Breeders and Exhibitors Association and/or the Spotted Saddle Horse Breeders and Exhibitors Association.

 Every time we ride, our horses are either learning
 or unlearning something from us. The decision is
 ours to make and we're consciously/subconsciously
 making it every minute we get to spend with them.
  Horsemanship is truly an interpersonal relationship between horse and
 human, and by my reckoning, the most important part of horse ownership. It
 will be at it's very best, the sum total of what you are willing to invest in time
 and effort. This in turn will, to a large degree, determine what your horse/
 partner is willing to invest. It's a mutual participation activity so if you want
 to just saddle up and expect the horse to do it all, including baby sit you while
 you just hang on, do yourself and the horse a huge favor by getting a big shiny
 4 wheeler. You will both go to sleep much happier and much less frustrated,
 and yes, they get just as frustrated with us as we do them. Assuming you start
 with the right kind of horse, there really are only two main things you must do
 to have/keep the horse of your dreams. First have a clear picture in your mind
 of exactly who/what that horse is. Second, EVERYTHING YOU DO with that
 horse should be working to that end. Your horse must always believe that any/
 every thing he/she did was in fact 100% YOUR idea -- Even if it wasn't! These
 two concepts will help you develop a loving/respecting/winning relationship.

 Cody's coloring is as beautiful as his conformation

 This boy has the experience to take you everywhere
 The name sounds fierce...But Dakota's Rolling Thunder might just be one of
 absolutely sweetest/ gentlest horses we've ever offered. We raised and placed his
 older brother, High Five, a couple of years ago and always looked forward to the
 time that we'd get to offer another from this fine family. They share all the same
 great qualities wanted/needed in a wonderful trail partner from the very obvious
 outer beauty to all the inner beauty imaginable. Cody stands 15 hands and has
 nearly perfect conformation from nose to tail. He's very laid back yet has all the
 "stuff" needed to handle the toughest terrain and I have had him there where he
 proved to me just exactly why I do love these guys so much. So far, nothing has
 ever seemed to bother him from traffic to wildlife to bad weather to gas powered
 leaf blower/ etc and he just gets better and better every ride. His gait is awesome
 at every speed and he carries himself in a very proud/ classy fashion. Cody loves
 everyone he's ever met and his stall video speaks volumes to his extremely gentle
 nature and personality. Lots of people worry about the younger horse's age but I
 love being able to personalize and make a horse my "very own" rather than to be
 riding "someone else's" older horse that they tired of having. At 3y/o and as good
 as he is today, I can only dream/ imagine just what a super aged horse he'll make
 with his wonderful attitude and loving disposition. He's gentle enough for most
 anyone with horse sense to ride, yet has the potential to be any and everything
 even the most seasoned rider could want. I would not hesitate to load him up and
 go trail riding anywhere there's riding to be done because he's proven to me that
 he's calm, steady, and surefooted enough to do the job. No weatherman necessary
 to predict the Rolling Thunder... SOLD   Video1 2 3 4 5 6  Trail Video1 2 3 4 5

  Sam is a beautiful Cremello with White mane/tail
  and he is the "creme de la creme" in every way...
  He also looks awesome in black tack/accessories.
 Fly high on White Lightning... Silver Streak's White Lightning aka "Sam",
 is another brother of Mojo, Lisa's personal horse. He's a stoutly built 15.1h reg.
 TWH with all the great qualities we've come to expect from this superior family
 of horses. Sam has a very regal look about him, maybe due to his soft Cremello
 color which has a pearl-like glow. He's a very steady calm 8y/o boy with a real no
 nonsense/ non-spooky attitude which makes him very simple and easy for almost
 anyone to ride. Sam loves to eat and will follow you anywhere/ do anything for a
 treat. He's lived a wonderful pampered life and had only the best of care, and we
 are committed to finding that same lifestyle for his future (the same as we do for
 all of our family of horses). He loves to go out in the pasture and hasn't had any
 problem with the sun, and loves a stall. On the trail he delivers a solid/steady ride
 and has never seemed to care what you do or when you choose to do it. Sam has
 all the right stuff to make the perfect trail/pleasure companion for life and does
 it with all the style and grace of the truly wonderful Tennessee Walking Horse.
 He has a very solid four beat gait at every speed, and also a nice smooth canter.
 Just for a little fun we took Sam over to the Tennessee Walking Horse National
 Celebration show grounds to ride around and enjoy talking to horse show goers.
 He was a PERFECT gentleman in every way, allowing folks from toddler size to
 adults a chance to pet and meet a Tennessee Walking Horse up close. There were
 vehicles of all type and description, back-up beepers, huge crowds swarming and
 he seemed to actually love every minute. He might be as much at home doing a
 mounted police/crowd control job as being a natural trail horse. Lisa rode Mojo
 and I rode Sam and we had an absolute blast. Prohibition has ended... $6500

 The "Perfect 10"... Diez  is to horses what Porsche is to sports cars. He's one
 of the most beautifully marked you'll ever see and that isn't even the good stuff.
 He's a 3y/o, 15h, SSH that has lived up to, and beyond, our expectations for him.
 His gait is wonderfully smooth at any speed, he's developing a great canter, he'll
 neck rein like a seasoned pro, and if you want a horse you can train to do about
 anything your heart desires, then this may just be the "one". Lisa can direct him
 using her weight in the saddle and her legs and he seems to tune in to your mind
 and give you just what you want. Like a really great handling sports car, you can
 almost become one with him and the smiles he can bring to a face is hard to hold
 back. On the trail he's been as good as the very best we've ever owned, of any age,
 and he just gets better and better. Diez has the sure-footed ability of a billy-goat
 and so far, the terrain can't seem to get too difficult for his natural ability. He's
 very careful where he places his feet and steep rocky ups/downs have yet to be a
 problem. All the unusual things that come up along the trail have never been an
 issue from wild turkey to deer to riding alone to tackling some new obstacle. He's
 simple and easy to bathe, clip, load/unload, shoe, stands still to mount/dismount,
 and will walk easily on a loose rein until asked for more. He carries himself like
 a beautiful show horse but has never pulled at the reins or tried to go faster than
 asked. We've raised him from a yearling and like any proud parents, we are very
 proud at how he's matured and turned out. I've learned from years of owning and
 being around many horses that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and that the
 "perfect horse" is just the same, but as far as I am concerned, Diez is a close to a
 10 as his name and my own "perfect" Wildman... $6800

 Dollar's coloring is a beautiful Chocolate Tobiano

 Dollar is extremely fun to ride both on and off the
 trail as he just always seems up for "whatever" ...
 Open up your wallet...Top Dollar will make any other currency obsolete when
 it comes time to go riding. He's a 12y/o, 15h, really wonderful/sweet example of a
 Tennessee Walking Horse and shows just why those who own/ride 'em love 'em.
 He's sweet, he's gentle. he's loving, he's very simple to operate and his gait is just
 about the nicest you'll ever ride at any speed you choose. He can walk slowly like
 a non-gaited horse and has one of the most comfortable walks I've ridden, but it
 gets even better when he steps up to move on down the trail. We've never really
 cared if a great trail horse has that famous TWH head-shake or not, but Dollar
 does and he looks so awesome doing it. His head-set is perfect and he carries him
 self with all the style of the fanciest show horse, yet has the calm/even disposition
 that we all want in our forever trail partners. I love riding a horse with a lot of
 "presence" to them and Dollar definitely has it. On the trail, he's been solid and
 never seems to mind anything that comes up along the way from tough terrain to
 the occasional "wild" life that tends to pop up from the underbrush. He seems to
 really like being trail ridden and seeing the countryside because his really keen
 ears point perfectly forward 99% of the time he's going down the trail. It's always
 been a pleasure to bathe, groom, shoe, clip, or any of the other routine stuff we've
 wanted to do with him. He stands to mount/dismount and walks off calmly when
 asked making it fun to saddle up and ride. Seldom does a really great older horse
 become available and when one like Dollar does, we don't have to think about it
 for a second before we jump at the opportunity. He is the type of horse that rarely
 comes along and somebody will be grinning from ear to ear when they exchange
 their "paper" dollars for one "equine" Top Dollar... $7200

 Win the war with a perfect battle... Champagne Battle  has been one of those
 near perfect young horses that started like a champ and has only gotten better. I
 can truly say that it would be hard to imagine a better minded/better gaited/better
 disposition partner than Yella Fella. He's a 3y/o, 15.1h TWH with a gait that's as
 close to perfect as I've ever ridden. It's all natural and he can do it for as long as
 wanted but never has to be asked twice to walk down slow on a loose rein and his
 walk is as comfortable as his gait. He's never spooked at anything to date and has
 the kind of mind that learns anything/everything we've offered to teach him with
 the ease of a straight A student. And once you teach him, it's in there forever. It's
 so hard to find really great TWH of color that have ALL the right stuff, but this is
 one of those rare few that got it all. On the trail, down the road, around the barn,
 or wherever else he's asked to ride he just gives a wonderful day. Ironically, both
 of his parents are spotted TWH and yet Fella only has a very slight star to show
 for all the spots in his background. His conformation is beautiful from his nose to
 his tail and they are both pure white naturally. Combine that with the soft velvet
 look of his gold champagne coat and while a picture is worth a thousand words,
 seeing this gorgeous boy in person is even better. We try to always have the best
 group of horses we can offer and Yella Fella is surely great example of the type of
 horse we love to own over and over again. You'll never have to go to war to win a
 perfect Battle... $7000

 Blackout is one of those buddies who just loves to
 be right with you and he loves getting a face hug...
 He has always stayed this black even when outside.

 Blackout looks totally awesome and beautiful in
 this video carrying the majestic American flag ...
 For size comparison, Lisa is 5'11" and I am 6'2"
 Don't dare call the power company... Champagne Blackout  will have you
 praying for a power outage/blackout every time you think of him. He may just be
 THE most handsome "Lookout" offspring we have ever raised and there've been
 some pretty ones. We just started Blackout June '09 even though he turned 4y/o
 back in May '09 because he was a bit smaller than usual, maybe because his dam
 was a maiden mare and he was her very first baby. He's always been one of the
 sweetest most affectionate horses ever and absolutely loves being with a person
 no matter what you're doing. While he was growing up I could go across into the
 70 acres pasture where he, and all of our youngsters and mares live, and always
 count on him to be the first one to come meet me for some loving. We trimmed
 his feet, wormed him, and did anything we wanted right there in the middle of
 the pasture with no problems. He haltered/led just like he was an adult from the
 first time and when I brought him over to begin work, he took a bath and clipped
 like he'd done it many times. Blackout's gait is wonderfully smooth and he seems
 able to do it for as long as you like but never minds walking slowly either. His
 mouth is light/responsive and he listens intently for whatever is asked. He's 5y/o,
 very well made 14.3 hands but you'd swear he was much bigger when you're up
 in the saddle riding. He has a beaming presence about him and just naturally
 sets his head for that beautiful way of going. He's one of the most competent and
 capable trail horses I've ever ridden and takes on every new/different challenge
 with ease like a well seasoned professional. I do, and will always, consider that
 my Wildman is the most beautiful black horse ever born but there's a very close
 runner-up right here. Don't turn on the lights because you'll love the Blackout...

 Rocky is a very deep Chestnut Brown year round...
 This boy should be safe for anyone, who can climb
 on his back, to trail ride and enjoy. Lisa carried a
 wooden post a half mile while riding him to get it to
 a location where we were making a trail gap. He's
 as solid as any horse I can ever imagine raising up.
 You'll want to Rock all the time...Sky's Rockin' Pearl Jam came here, like a
 lot of our guys, as a yearling. Along the way Lisa took a shine to him and began
 to do most of his work herself. He's turned into exactly what he was destined to
 be from the start, a totally awesome trail partner. So far, absolutely nothing has
 ever bothered him from all the usual stuff to the sometimes unusual, like a high
 powered leaf blower that he seems drawn to every time I use it. Rocky has such a
 nice gait and like so many horses she trains, Lisa has put a really nice canter on
 him as well. He's a coming 4y/o TWH who just gets more beautiful every day. At
 15h, he's a great size for most any rider to mount/dismount easily and he stands
 perfectly still until you ask him to move off. Out on the trail he has never seemed
 to care what comes up, how many horses are riding, riding off alone, or where he
 may be asked to ride in the group. He's the kind of horse that loves everybody he
 meets and is more fun to hang out with than most people you probably know. All
 the regular daily things are simple and easy with him and the farrier will love to
 come and shoe him for you. But the best way to find out just how really special
 he is will be to meet him in person because he'll tell you everything you need to
 know once you hang out with him for a while. Rock on....$6500 for now

 Soldier is one the "brothers" we'll offer this year...

 Here's Soldier's video carrying the American flag.
 Atten-Hut, Forward, March...Beaucoup's Soldier is definitely the type to be
 a 4-Star General in anybody's army. He's a 3y/o TWH who proves over and over
 just why we love his daddy, who happens to be the daddy of my personal horse LS
 and several other boys we've previously placed and still to come. Soldier is such a
 sweet/loving horse and has a wonderful mind which makes all the different stuff
 you do with him a pleasure. On the trail he's taken any challenge with the savvy
 and confidence that you'd expect from a much older horse, yet he's always had it.
 He's very steady and his gait is one of those naturally smooth and easy to ride so
 it doesn't require any special knowledge or skill to enjoy. Walking down slowly is
 never a problem and he has just the right amount of go to get the job done if you
 want to move on and gait or climb a hill and see what's up there. I've had Soldier
 in some very tough/tight/tricky places and he has never let me down, and actually
 been quite amazing in a spot or two where we really had to be precise and steady.
 It's always fun to have an excellent student and this boy is sure enough got what
 it takes to be on the Honor Roll. All the routine stuff like baths/clipping/loading/
 unloading/standing to mount/shoeing/etc are so simple and easy to do. He's just
 another one of those really great horses that's born to be a trail partner and he
 literally gets better with every step on every ride. He stands a little over 15.2h at
 this time but will likely get to 15.3ish when he's fully matured making him such
 a great size for about any type riding. While I may be too old to join Uncle Sam's
 army, I'd be sure to find a way to be in the army with this Soldier... SOLD

 Check out this "cool" video of Soldier... If your cooler can take it, he'll move it...

 I can't imagine anyone who couldn't ride this boy
 Ride the Ponderosa every day... Beaucoup's Little Joe  couldn't be more fun
 if Hoss, Ben, and Adam were there to ride with you. He's a 4y/o TWH who is as
 gentle as the day is long and sweet doesn't come close to being the right adjective
 to describe his disposition. He's a "big" 15.1h and always gives a feeling of total
 confidence when out on the trail. Joe is one of those trail horses that just seems
 to be in 4 wheel drive taking very deliberate slow steps in even the trickiest type
 terrain. His favorite gait is to walk but it's absolutely no problem to get him into
 his really smooth gait and he has a big fun rolling canter that reminds me of DJ
 every time we do it. I have found him to be extremely steady minded and it would
 seem to take a true disaster to get his attention diverted from delivering a great
 ride every time we saddle up. He's the kind of horse that almost any person with
 just the basic natural ability to ride horses could learn and build their confidence
 while improving their own skill level. But, don't think for a minute you will out-
 grow his ability as he has the natural gift to please even the seasoned riders who
 enjoy a challenge once in a while. Bathing, clipping, load/unload, shoeing, etc.
 are all done with ease and he seems intent on always fully cooperating with any
 request given. Each and every "brother" who shares his great sire have been just
 the same and we would have a hard time dreaming of better trail partners/ family
 members. Joe's pictures give a glimpse of his beauty but the real joy is knowing
 him in person. You can find all the fun of Virginia City and the Ponderosa right
 here and then begin to write your own perfect script with Joe... $6900

 Joe and Soldier are just some of the great brothers
 Having the wonderful opportunity to breed, raise, and train many horses through
 the years, you begin to think about lots of different aspects of the horses' lives we
 share. I always am so amazed at how the siblings seem drawn to each other even
 when they are from different years and foal crops. I really do wonder if they feel
 some familial connection like you hear about among sisters and brothers who get
 separated at birth or early age. We absolutely love raising up and training our
 own horses and having the chance to make them special and eventually become
 someone's very own, with no bad habits or "baggage" carried forward from some
 less than ideal life/home. Then that new owner gets the pleasure and opportunity
 to make that horse "theirs" and ride one that is truly unique/custom just to them.
 It's just really hard to imagine how it could be any better than owning, riding, &
 growing with a great minded young horse that hasn't "been around the block".
 Why spend $thousand$ more... This like new 2002 Exiss 200ST aluminum
 2 horse slant load trailer belongs to a neighbor and friend who is downsizing his
 operation. He purchased this trailer about 5 years ago and has only pulled local
 for trail riding/showing. It is wired for 120V and can be plugged in at a campsite
 or anywhere you have portable power to run whatever. As the many pictures from
 all angles show, it is not hurt in any way and has no dents/scratches/dings that I
 could find. The tires and spare are all matching Goodyear and as the you can see
 from the pictures are in excellent shape with many miles left. It has a saddle rack
 that can be located in the front or rear tack, has a 4ft short wall in the dressing
 room and is fully carpeted like new. None of the tack/etc seen in the pictures is
 included. Alternate Picture1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18    $10500

 These are all saddles that we know to fit 99% of all the gaited horses out there
 as well as fit/sit the rider very comfortably and securely. Now available are some
 of the most popular brands of "Gaited Horse Saddles" on the market today, such
 as Dixieland, Crestridge, Original "Crates made" Tennessean, and Reinsman.

    All of our Tennessee Walking Horses for sale and Spotted Saddle Horses for sale are ridden alone and in groups, on country roads and trails, around cars, trucks, tractors, ATV's, eighteen wheel Tyson Chicken trucks, etc. and are exposed to as many different obstacles as possible. Our trail rides consist of uphill and downhill, creeks and water, rocky and muddy, and sometimes roadside riding, so that the gaited horses for sale will be versatile and experienced on trails. Our gaited trail horses are never ridden in "long shank bits", "gag type bits", "twisted wire bits", or any other harsh style of "Walking Horse" bit. Each of our gaited trail horses is taught to work first in a plain "snaffle bit" with no curb strap/chain for a very light touch. Only when they fully know and understand what is expected are they finished off with a very mild "Argentine" style bit for that last little bit of primping. Our horses have normal feet with NO long toes or low heels, NO weighted or oversized shoes and are shod to their natural conformation the same as any normal trail horse of any breed should be. We represent any Tennessee Walking Horse for sale or Spotted Saddle Horse for sale as honestly and accurately as possible. Potential buyers have the option, and are welcome, to come and test ride any gaited trail horse and have a pre-purchase exam before horses leave Evening Shade Farm.
    We are not professional horse traders or brokers and do not sell horses for our living. Lisa is a Registered Nurse and I work with the School System. Consequently, the selection of gaited trail horses for sale that you will find on our site will be limited to only the caliber horse that we would personally keep forever because our goal is to offer high quality gaited trail horses, not quantity. While many of the trail horses for sale are raised and started right here at Evening Shade Farm, we also search out quality gaited trail horses. These are not horse sale, trader, or consignment horses but carefully selected and purchased by us from individual owners, and the truly good ones are few and far between. We look at many different aspects of each gaited trail horse we consider, and ultimately the decision comes down to one all important question; "Would I purchase this gaited trail horse for my own personal companion?". If the answer is yes, that Tennessee Walking horse is the one you will see on our Horses for Sale page available for your consideration. Please feel free to contact us at any time with any questions you may have using the address, phone number, and/or e-mail link above. We really look forward to hearing from you.....

This beautiful picture of Bandit, a former Evening Shade Farm boy, was sent to
               me by my great friend and a spectacular horse mom. It's especially special to me
               because I lived in/loved Florida for several years and still consider it to be one of
               my homes. Views like this are exactly why I got sand in my shoes that will be there
               forever. Thank you so much Betty for taking the time to share this with me...
