Well, I've got the pony. Now where's that million dollars?
This is one of the reasons I'm looking for a part-time job:

His name is Franco Donatello*; he's a 15.3 hand, five-year-old, chestnut Holsteiner gelding, and as of this afternoon, he is mine.
You can see that he celebrated with mud:

Also, that I take crap photographs. The best one I got was one of him modeling his fly-mask:

Which mostly shows you how weird fly-masks look.
I am undoubtedly insane for buying this horse, but there are a lot of things that I have wanted to do and not done because they were too expensive or I didn't have the time or I didn't have anyone to do them with, and I know what those regrets feel like. With dressage and horses, I'm taking the other approach, of going ahead and trying, even though I'm not sure it's going to work. Because this is something I really want to do, and this young, sweet goofball of a horse seems like he's going to be a good partner to do it with.
