We now have three (yes, three!) horses in the herd. Our friend Marie's horse Zip arrived yesterday after more than an week of traveling from Washington State.
He was trucked in stages from Washington to Ocala, Florida. Our friends Greg and Linda air transport horses all over the Caribbean. They flew Zip from Ocala to San Juan and then one more trailer ride from SJ to Isabela. (Greg and Linda also have a Thoroughbred ranch - Hacienda Siesta Alegre - on the other side of the island. They were the ones who rescued KTJ from the racetrack.)
Marie was at work when Zip arrived. When she finally got here, I think she was happy to see him.
Zip is fitting in well with Chocolate and KTJ (who is much much better, thank you). They are still sorting out the pecking order but peacefully. KTJ loves her new herd-mate. I think Chocolate is a little jealous but maybe I anthropomorphize my animals too much.
It's so cool waking up and looking out the window at these beautiful horses in the early morning sunrise sunshine.
