I had a wonderful opportunity to make the acquaintance of Tami & Dennis Zimmerman of Oak Park Miniatures (Marshall, WI) ..... as we met at their farm to await our transporter, Phyllis Alexander!
WOW, talk about a well-organized, clean operation AND beautiful, happy horses. What really touched my heart is Tami maintains a wonderful pasture of retired broodmares....gotta love a person with a heart like that! Think I'll chase her down and make her both mini mentor and friend!

Because our trailer had a major mechanical problem, Ghost and I had an opportunity to keep each other company in the front cabin of the truck. If you'll remember, Ghost is the bald-face palomino who was abused, thus never trusting people. Well, on the 2-1/2 journey, this wonderful horse kept KISSING MY SHOULDER, as we enjoyed country tunes. When Ghost was loaded on the big transport and placed in her stall, I cried like a baby! This beautiful horse hid her love for me....never knew she trusted this old hag.

Tami snapped these photos when we arrived:


Thanks for allowing me to share these bittersweet memories.
