A Very Sad Day

This is the day I have been dreading for some while now - my lovely mare Megan is no longer with me. At 26, old age has unfortunately taken its course, and today I had to make a very difficult decision.






To say that I will miss her doesn't begin to describe how I feel, she has been my friend and a big part of my life for over 15 years.

Don't think you'll hear much from me for a little while , but I am sure you'll understand

How terrible! Having horses myself and losing a few over the years, I do know how hard it is. They are part of the family.
