On to Indiana!

So, we head out about 1 pm, with both babies in the trailer. They have turned out to be surprisingly terrific travelers. Little Ripple, or Midget, as Larry keeps insisting on calling him, has a very adventurous personality, and is happily eating and drinking. Shiraz is a little more reserved, though also nicely calm.

We were making pretty good time until we got to Indianapolis, where we hit five o'clock Friday afternoon traffic. UGGGH. It took more than an hour to go around Indianapolis. Thankfully, when we checked the babies north of the traffic, they were still quiet and calm. Whew. They didn't even overheat, which we were really worried about, not being hot at all.

We found Bev's place, where we due to pick up Chiron, the two year old, with no trouble, just an hour and a half later than we expected.

The babies unloaded great, and were happy to get turned out on some nice grass! Beth recognized Chiron from his photos and excitedly walked over to meet him.

Wow. We knew he was nice, but WOW. In person we were just blown away. He is spectacular! His dad, Baron, is breathtaking.

We had a nice dinner and then headed out to meet the other horses.

Wow, again. She had some spectacularly nice horses. Anyone looking for a WB/Shagya? OMG -- she has a four year old that is to die for :-D

The temps were in the 60's, we got to plug the trailer in and went to bed for a wonderful nights rest.
