Dun mare born 2001.

14 hands

I am happy to say that Lily is confirmed in foal to Paisano for 2009. The foal has already found a with my friends at Tired Dog Ranch.

Lily is a great trail horse and wonderful companion. She will babysit children and novice riders in the ring, yet still provide an exciting ride on the trail for a more experienced rider. I look foreward to doing some endurance with her in the future. In the meantime she is part leased and I am just enjoying riding her.

Lily was born on the Cayuse Ranch and spent the first year and a half of her life on the range with her sire and his mares and foals. Lily's ancestors include San Domingo, Mexi Cali Rose, Yellow Fox, Buckshot, Chief Pushmataha, and Blue Corn.

How I ended up with Lily. It was the beginning...

If you are new to Lily's weblog and want to start at the beginning, go down to the bottom to "Day 1." Then just use your back button to come back here. Some of the page to page links might not work anymore, since I moved to a new domain.
