This Mini Stallion caught my eye.

Saw this adorable stallion posted for sale and thought he was so cute. However, I am not a good judge of confirmation. Can anyone tell anything from this picture that may be amiss?

Well, much has happened since I last logged on. FIrst, I forgot my password -- then I started grad school. My wife had a family issue (both her parents were in the hospital, one right after the other -- gladly they are both well.

Bonnie was squealing as she flew around through the woods beyond the little meadow, jumping her brush pile, doing huge gigantic sliding stops, with roll backs. Lots of dancing around mom Altea and… Continue
