I drove to Timeless Farm with my horse trailer. I pulled into the parking lot and went to find Dana. "Hi Dana!" I said. "hi Meghan, what brings you to timeless Farm again?" Dana asked. "I just came to pick up Windy. Will you pick up Dutchess tomorrow?" I said. "I'll pick up Dutchess from you tomorrow. Come on, windy's this way." she said. I followed her into a barn. each stall had a beautiful horse in it.
She led me to a perticalarly hansome horse. The nameplate said,"Gone with the Wind". I couldn't believe the the horse I was staring at was mine. "Do you like him?" Dana asked.
"Do i like him?! I love him!" I said. "So, was he worth the trade?" Dana asked. "Yeah, he was." I said," I brought a halter and leadline for him." "Ok, why don't you bring your car and trailer up to this barn and bring his halter." She said. "Ok." and I went and pulled the car ans stuff up there. i got the honor of leading him out and into the trailer. We put up the ramp and closed the escape door. I thanked Dana and took Windy home. when we got there I unloaded him and put him in a stall. A DAY PASSES.. I walked down to the barn and got out Windy. I groomed him and put on the racing tack. I put polos and bellboots on him
and mounted him. I walked him out to the biggest ring I had
and I warmed him up. He had huge,powerful strides. I let him walk a min, and then took him for a spin. "Let's see what you can do." I told him. He galloped smoothly. I cooled him out, untacked him and put him away. I gave him a treat and went back to the house.
