<strong>Member</strong> Memories<br />
But our troubles weren’t over yet! When we arrived at the barn the next morning, Star (a normally voracious<br />
eater) was picking at his grain and running a low-grade fever. The very kind horse show vet checked<br />
over and treated Star, and we kept an eye on him throughout the morning. Star was feeling much better<br />
by afternoon, so we began the drive home, hoping for an uneventful drive. The minute we entered West<br />
Virginia we hit some of the heaviest thunder storms that I had ever driven through. At one point, we even<br />
had to pull off the highway because we truly couldn’t see. We just couldn’t seem to escape the dark<br />
cloud that had shrouded us during our travels!<br />
When we finally did make it back to the calm of the Carolinas, Tilly and I felt so relieved to be safely home!<br />
Now, years later, we can laughingly reminisce on the fiasco that we will never forget! We are glad that at<br />
least Puppy got a good home out of it (he’s turned out to be a sweet and loyal pup!), and we did make up<br />
our own version of the John Denver song “Country Roads!”<br />
Country roads, take me home,<br />
Far away from<br />
West Virginia!<br />
Do you have a horse related memory to share with us?<br />
We’d love to read it. Pictures are welcome!<br />
