Nov 1, 2008

The Success Stories are a lot of fun to read. I thought I might add a posting for the horses still at Bits & Bytes Farm. We have lots of Success Stories and this site is a good place to add some of their stories to those of horses that have already found new moms.…

Pegasus . . .

Nov 7, 2011

It’s at this particular moment you realize that Pegasus isn’t a metaphor for how horses impacted mankind—-it is the very true and real feeling you have when literal wings just unfurl in your heart because of one very special horse and what she gives to one person….and being lucky enuf to be that person…..life is just sooooooooooooooooo good…..

Every Adult Woman will Appreciate – Your Husband on Your Horse!?!

Feb 21, 2009
