We have a contract on our farm and will be moving to Florida to retire into a WONDERFUL resort-style community where we will have continuing care for the rest of our lives, whatever level we need - independent, assisted living, skilled nursing, and memory care. We'll be less than a mile from the beach! We will greatly miss our horses and friends we've made through 42 years of living in Georgia, but it's time to make this big change in our lives.

We are having a BIG tack, equipment, tool, and furniture sale on April 13, 14 15, and 16. Please use the following link to get information and daily pictures of the estate sale!!!!!

Okay, y'all have been waiting for more hints concerning the unique opportunity regarding the 3 horse pictures that I posted! I've been so busy prepping for this gigantic sale I'm having, I apologize for leaving you "hanging"!

Here's the scoop. When you come to the sale, these three horses will be showcased in the main barn where the sale is. You'll receive specific information regarding each horse. If you are interested in a horse after finding out more about him or her, please send me an e-mail to [email protected] before Sunday, May 1st explaining why I should choose YOU to be the next owner of one of these horses. I'll read all of the applicants' e-mails and if I think you are the best match for the horse, I will contact you by Saturday, May 7 at which time you may purchase that horse from me for $1.00. Yes, $1.00.

These horses have been with me since they were six months old. They are each registered. One is a Hanoverian gelding, one is an Oldenburg mare, and one is an Appaloosa mare without spots. They are each unique to each other and unique in what they can offer to you. Please come meet them! It will be worth the drive!!!

I had hip replacement surgery on my right hip 19 weeks ago. Since then, I've ridden my "little boyfriend", Cruise Control, twice. He's 14.1 hands and a saint. This weekend I pulled out the elevator and started my rebonding with my heart horse, 17.3 hand Redford!! Big Red, you were definitely a saint, too, for me! LOVE my magic steeds!!!

We would like you to give a warm welcome to Gillian Vigreux! She's joined High Flight Farm as a working student in the barns in the mornings and evenings, and she will also be teaching some beginner hunt seat lessons. Gillian moved into the barn apartment earlier this month, and while some rumors are rolling around that she's "the barn manager", she's quick to say she's happy to have Mr. Joe and Mrs. Pam continue to be the bosses and the managers!

If you or your child have been considering riding lessons, please contact us (770-957-1603, no texts, leave a message) to get on Gillian's schedule so she can build her client base here at High Flight Farm! After school lesson times will fill up quickly. As the fourth trainer on our staff, we're sure you'll enjoy Gillian as much as we do!!

"Red sky at night, sailor's delight. But red sky in the morning, sailor take warning!" We're waiting on heavy rains to come later today, and a cold rain continuing through Friday. Looks like the old adage fits in today's morning sky!
