Good Morning,
The weather has been absolutely GREAT in Kentucky for the last few days. It actually reached the 70′s. WOW…a bit of California in the Bluegrass State!
Here I am enjoying the sunshine with by Paddock Friends. From left to right, they are Sea Gull, P.Q., Alyss and ME! YIPPEE, we are all just relaxing, looking fabulous, EARS FORWARD, and SO HAPPY!
Cooper, who is the yearling manager at Lane’s End, was driving by our paddock when he looked over and saw us in the field enjoying the sunshine! He could not resist jumping out of his truck and taking this photo. I think we all look terrific! So glad he was able to capture this moment…for YOU!
We had a fabulous afternoon! I was thinking back…and this is the warmest it has been since I arrived in Kentucky. It brought back memories. I have not lounged around in a paddock and laid in the sun like this since I was a yearling. I’ve spent a great deal of time ‘sunning’ in California. As many of you may know, John always had me graze and spend a couple of hours each day outdoors with my dear friend, Mario! But to be totally free like this in a large paddock…I have not done this for years!
Hope you have a wonderful day with some of your friends. Enjoy yourself, relax, and most importantly remember to HAVE SOME FUN!
With Love,
Hugs to All~

Zenny…Cooper ROCKS! We love the photo…it’s wonderful to see you enjoying the good life in Ky.
Your “retirement” has been a blessing in so many ways. I, for one, love seeing the relaxed, horsey side f your personality. Hi to Dottie for continuing to share your days with us.

A dear friend told me to make sure I saw this picture today. I am so glad that Cooper jumped out of his truck to take this showing the closeness you all have with one another. A Picture is worth a thousand words…and this certainly is one of them. I am glad it has been warmer there in KY. You all look so happy and enjoying some down time that you all deserve. It makes me happy to know you are truly enjoying this new life.
