Description: Wildfire was a young horse we rescued in 1988. He was a seal brown with 3 stockings and a big blaze. He was the most fun to ride of all of my horses. I could ride him like in the movie: "Dances With Wolves", arms outstretched to the side, and at a nice gallop.We would go riding with 4H'rs. They tried for years to get Wildfire lost, while we were riding. He always found the shortcut home. He was quite a character. We had him until he passed away in 1997, due to cancer.

When my kids were about 9 and 5, we got them baby goats for Christmas. The (goat) kids were white and off white, a brother and sister. It was so cold that winter, we dressed them in shirts to stay warm! They were the Preppiest Goats you ever saw! Little button down Polo shirts that my twin brothers had outgrown, in matching styles, but different co… read more

She was almost solid white, and had Appaloosa characteristics. She was a … read more
