It’s been years since I sent you an update, but I thought you might like to know how Voted Off is doing. His primary job has been as my husband’s trail horse for the last 5 years.

Elizabeth, Thanks for the response. No worries. We are going S-L-O-W, primarily bc. of the extreme heat here in Memphis. Goldie huffs and puffs. He’s getting hosed down round the clock. Despite that, he’s still a love and dealing w/ his frequent presence in the wash rack with relative patience. We have him on One…
