“The guy who was interested in buying one of his Arabians planned on being here in about an hour. He hated to let horses go, hated the goodbye, but it was all part of the cycle. Animals were born. They lived out their days. Some lived, some died, some were sold, and some were unforgettable. This particular mare had a rough go of it, foaling in the dead of winter, struggling through more challenges than she should have faced and keeping her sweet nature through it all. Jim, the guy interested in buying her, had a couple of other horses and teenage girls. Sally, the mare, would like the girls. Seemed most girls went through a horse phase, and Jim’s kids all rode competitive trail, meaning they understood the animals and would lavish Sally in love and probably braid her mane… Stuff Jack didn’t really have time for, not with work and the other horses to tend to and train. Breathing hard, he leaned on the shovel, considering the now empty stall.
