It has been a sad few weeks at the stables...
Corky, a cute little bay pony, colicked sometime about two weeks ago and had to be put down. :( He was a really friendly pony and all of the small kids rode him because he was so tiny. I never rode him, but I would almost always go to say hi to him.
Another horse, May, died in her sleep of a heart attack. She was really old (around 40 years old!!!) and much loved around the barn. In the summer the horse campers would sometimes groom her in their free time and put pink polos on her. She was retired from riding and basically had free roam of the stables in the summer.
They were both such sweet horses and I just hope they know that we all miss them. :(
