So I decided to take the plunge and buy a mare that I have been eye-ing for a year or so now. She was at my old stables and I was always envious of whoever was riding her. She went up for sale this spring and I have been trying her out. I had a day off today and my friend Sarah came out to the barn and took pictures for me when I rode!
