Goodbye to Skar

Ms. Jean's first Arabian, Skar (don't know her full name) was put down today.  Poor old girl was around 38 years old.  She had such long hair she looked like she had Cushings Disease.  She was in the pasture next to Red and Sarge and I would give her nose a pat every now and then when she was at the gate.  I got out to the barn this morning to see Red's shoes and Dr. Sherwood was there to put her down.  Ms. Jean was sad, I am sure, but stoic.  She said Skar is who started the entire farm.  She is now buried in the back of the ranch.

Rest in Peace Skar.
