Southern States customer, Jennifer Gwyn, shared this precious photograph of her husband Stephen with their son. “Lee takes a serious approach to new things,” his mom says. He certainly seems to be taking his first-ever ride on a horse seriously, but mom reports he had the time of his life and can’t wait to get back on the saddle!
Tammy Wyatt, a Southern States customer with our Reidsville, NC store, wrote and shared this funny story. “My mother is a prim, proper Southern lady of the old school. My daughter Ashley had been out riding her retired barrel racing horse, Rosie on a hot, early autumn afternoon. Ashley stopped by her grandmother’s for a glass of iced tea, and said, ‘Nana, I’m sweating like a horse.’ My mother replied, ‘Sweet heart, ladies like us don’t sweat, we glow.’ My mother burst out laughing when Ashley responded. ‘Well, then Nana, I’m glowing like a horse.’”
Jay Craven, a Southern States customer with Quarterbred Stables, sent in these shots of twin foals, Samson and Sassy, with the grand dam, Roman Courtney, a beautiful red roan-colored Appaloosa. Leo’s Blazing Red Sun, a sorrel-colored Quarter Horse sired them. The shots were taken on their first day out of the stall. Jay wrote, “Samson looks like an Appaloosa but has a Quarter Horse attitude. Sassy looks like a Quarter Horse but has an Appaloosa attitude. The mare was fed Reliance® with Source® Micro Supplement and had access to Southern States Mineral Blocks. They are real Kiss Me Kates and will have you wrapped around their hooves within five minutes of meeting them.” Five minutes? It didn’t take that long to wrap us!
