Pick Up Day

Pick up day has finally come and gone!  We arrived at the corrals around 8:30AM to a line of horse trailers whose drivers were all as anxious as I to see their horses.  It gave us some time to browse the facility and try to catch a glimpse of our horse.  Lots of great animals looking for homes in the Boise facility.

After an hour or so, it was my turn to load.  Down the alleyway came this guy: A 2011 from Hardtrigger Herd Management Area, gathered last October and gelded in February.  We were finally loaded and headed out around 10AM.  After almost 11 hours on the road, we made it home and unloaded.  My poor guy was exhausted (and so was I!)  Much to discover about each other in the coming days.
