Craig, Craig, Craig...  sigh... 
She's a cutie, tho!  This is the 4 month old? 
You probably won't ask, but let me know if I can help.  Gotta ask tho - what's her "one trick"?

I'm guessing it is a loose reference to a movie by the name of "One Trick Pony" from 1980 although only Craig can only tell us for sure.

Hey Tammie,

I agreed with you that I'm a jerk...but not a complete one.<g>  I did carefully weigh what both you and LeeAnne had to say about foals and even read a couple books that also mentioned that what I was considering might be a recipe for disaster, but I decided to pull a "Bush" and do what the hell I wanted to anyway against all rational advise.<g>

Seriously, I did consider your advise and then spent the better part of the day visiting One Trick and her family...and by that I mean her equine family....mama and a number of siblings were there and what can I say, they were just nice, mellow horses.  So I figure I have the time to spend with her, as long as she doesn't piss me off I have the patience to work with her<g> and when things blow up in my face I have you to run to begging for advice and promising to listen this time.

She is just such a sweet animal, I honestly believe I can learn her to be a good horse.  Her one trick was suppose to be 'sit', but she still hasn't gotten the hang of it yet, which is stange as it only took my dog like ten minutes.<g>  Tim is right, it is an oblique reference to the 1980 Paul Simon movie that had nothing to do with horses...or tricks for that matter.<g>

I know, I know - the name was in reference to the movie...  But I thought maybe her "trick" was that she could open any gate latch that's been made, or manages to escape from any fence... 
Okay. Here's the deal.  When (if?) you have any problems you have to fly your butt here, to my ranch, so I can show you some "tricks" to teach her.  Then you have to help me repot and fertilize all my lilies!   lol  @O@ And you have to bring Darcy too.
One of my boarders has a foal coming, I think it's in May.  If she's smart she'll move her mare to another ranch where she'll have more pasture time.
She is a cutey-patootey tho.  Can I see a picture that shows her whole body, including the entire leg?  Maybe a front and back shot too?  I'm nosy...
Tammie
P.S. - I never said you were a jerk!!

I know you didn't...see how easily stories can get started.<g>

Here are some other views of One Trick.  This isn't for foal porn purposes is it?<g>
