August 17 - Pondering stuff

Ahhh...the trials and tribulations of horse ownership.

With how busy Doyle and I are right now with our jobs and the amount of money pouring out in the near future for Gunner...we just don't seem to know whether we are coming or going.

We would like to seriously get down in numbers. Have pondered selling Ace and Angel...but have definately decided to sell Gidget, Dolly and Molson.

Molson will be listed as a stud prospect but will be gelded in the fall or early spring depending on when I have time and if he is still here. If he is still here over the winter, I have talked to Jason about taking him and putting a month or more on him and then putting him through the "Cow Horse Sale" up here. With his color etc. we may make a few dollars on him but who knows.


Dolly, of course, has been for sale for a couple of years with little or no interest. She is a nice mare and put really beautiful foals on the ground. So if she ends up staying, I will just breed her to Hyde or Gunner and sell "penning/all around ranch" horses.


And Gidget...hmmm...she is put together okay...a really nice mind...so if she is here in the spring...I think I will breed her to Hyde and sell her in foal...maybe that will help.


But the main goal is to get down in numbers.
