1. Maddie...

... is a beautiful horse! Is she a registered Paint, or a Pinto? My first horse was a Pinto Mustang gelding named Patch, who also had a watch eye on the left, as well as a brand, H-bar-E. We were forced to part company 63 years ago. I was 15. I have one picture of him.

4. Maddie's a registered Paint. My wife raised her from birth. Patch must have been a good horse for you.

So sorry for whatever happened 63 years ago. Glad you have his precious picture.

7. Thanks, George...

... parents got divorced. I'm pretty much over it now. I'll post that photo when I figure out how. Actually, a couple of very helpful DUers have given me advice on how to do that, but it seems like there's always something else that demands my time. Keeping a198-year-old house from coming down around our ears is a big something, and I ain't the Energizer Bunny I once was. 10 or 12 years ago I'd post one of my political 'toons every Sunday under the auspices of the news website for which I'd done them, along with an occasional rant I'd tape, but the memory part of my brain pan has sprung a few leaks as I sneak up on 80, so there's that.
Anyway, give Maddie a carrot for me!
