Sorry about the posting delay guys.... he's home!!

Last night I was at Devon ALL day and was scheduled to close (which usually gets done around 10pm).

As Suzie posted, Somerset was loaded up at 2pm. Then the driver hit horrible traffic around DC. Then there was a terrible thunderstorm and he had to pull over and wait a bit.

All in all, poor Somerset was on the trailer 8 hours. Poor guy! He got there around 10:15pm and I rushed out of Devon to meet him.

He trailered like a CHAMP and walked off in LOVELY condition. The only thing is, apparently he's a butt bar sitter. :lol: :P And uh, he ain't no tiny guy ;) So he managed to rub a little raw spot on his tail. Now I know. Always wrap-- he's a butt bar sitter. :) A little corona for a few days and he'll be set.

I was crying when he got there and so was my trainer. I am so happy. He's wonderful, everything I could ever want and more than I ever expected to find. What a chilled out guy -- he walked into Keneva like he owned the place and had always been there. The driver said it was one of the nicest looking and behaving horses he had ever had the pleasure to transport and said Suzie was great to deal with and a real pro.

It was dark, so only 1 picture.... for now...

I haven't even called Suzie yet-- didn't want to wake her up last night. Calling her this AM.... then going out to see my new boy! :):) I cannot thank everyone involved enough. I am so happy to have Somerset. I am going to spoil this horse rotten!!! :clap:
