Warlander Papers Came

The thermometer was reading 34 degrees when I went out to feed but was rising quickly and actually felt pretty warm by the time we walked.  I had to quit early as I needed to stop at Sam's Club before heading to the Berean office. If you would like to read about our fun morning there click HERE.
I left around noon for home but had to stop for gas first and hit Aldi for some cans of pumpkin. The rain started on the way home.  As soon as Emma was let out and the food put away I headed up to the apartment to get it ready for the guests coming in tomorrow.  That took a couple hours because I was trying to figure out how to make that television to turn on without calling one of the kids to help. Not to brag or anything but I got it working. It turned out that Israel must have dropped the remote and the batteries must have come out and then he put them in wrong.  As soon as the batteries were in right it worked.  Sometimes you just have to be smarter than those smart TVs.
When the apartment was clean and ready for guests instead of heading back to the house the horses were fed. Tomorrow I must move another bale in for the weanlings. I have 7 in that paddock which is just too many but when I tried to separate them they are not happy. I have them locked off the field because of the rain today and more rain tomorrow.
Zalena is looking much better since she has been here. She gets 3 meals a day of Equine Senior and fine stemmed green mostly grass hay. She just needed extra calories at her age. She is 20 years old this year.
Joshua's registration papers came finally. He is registered and dna'd in the Warlander Book of Friesian Heritage Horse International.  A Warlander can ONLY be a cross between a Friesian and an Andalusian, NO other breed is allowed.  They are extremely trainable, very athletic and have amazing stamina. This breed can truly excel in pretty much any discipline (except racing). This colt is black and will stay black! He also inherited the mega hair from both his sire Evan pictured below,
and his dam Madiera pictured below to show her double sided mane.
He is well behaved, leads, loads and always comes right to the gate for attention. His tail is so bushy, thick and long it will be dragging on the ground when he is full grown. He already has an abundance of feather. He should easily reach 16.1 when full grown. 
He just happens to be for sale and we have dropped his price from $6000.00 to $5000.00 so if you were ever tempted to buy a Warlander you may want to consider Joshua. He really is worth much more than we are asking. The video below was taken Nov 20th, 2019 to show how well he leads and a small clip of his trot and canter.
