Meet The Gray Filly
"In Person"
Gracie and Peppermint
Silver Peppermint was born April 27, 1977 to my daughter's Welsh mare Pepper. We miss her tender kisses and sweet nickers and cherish all the delightful adventures she shared with us. She will be a precious memory forever!
Pictures of her birth - April 27, 1977
There's no such thing as a sterile barn cat.
No
one ever notices how you ride until you fall off.
The least useful horse in your barn will eat
the most, require shoes every
four weeks and need the vet at least once a month.
Your favorite tack always gets chewed on, and your new blanket gets torn.
Tack you hate will never wear out and blankets you hate cannot be destroyed.
Horses you hate cannot be sold and will outlive you.
Clipper blades will become dull when your horse is half clipped.
If you approach within fifty feet of your barn in clean clothes, you will get
dirty.
The number of horses you own will increase to the number of stalls in your
barn.
Your barn will fall down without baling twine.
Hoof picks always run away from home.
If you fall off, you will land on the site of your most recent injury.
