And a great find as well.

The first horse scales in over 1,000 LBS. He placed both front hooves and jumped right in. The young Draft Horse walked up and placed his left one and stepped back. She got the one to move against the wall and then he jumped in like wait for me. Smaller white one climbed in and stood sideways behind. They ll came out on their own like they knew just what to do. The leather and brass heart piece, I used Mothers Mag to polish the two initials. All I seen was a dirty metal ring under a pile of rusty junk. Sad that he wouldn't take care of his fathers place. Found a rusty M Boker cutter/pliers, solvent has them freed up and will work on a restore. A flat pointed blacksmiths hammer missing a handle, stamped on both sides but not sure yet on maker.
A gentile giant he dwarfed her.

My wife and I used to go to a lot of horse shows and training seminars and not everyone is equally gifted in working with horses, it appears that Addison is. Thanks for sharing. Enjoyed the picture of your better half as well.

Very cool! Growing up we raised, broke, worked, and traded. Belgians, mules, walking, and racking horses. I sure do miss them. I’ve often thought of getting a couple of Belgian mares and a mammoth Jack. Thanks for the pictures.

leather and brass horse harness heart that my wife held. Mothers Mag wheel polish on the initials. He passed in the 1960's.
