The 31st of March was warm
and sunny - about the only good day we have had so far - and thus the
best last day that my wonderful boy could have had.
I miss him so much. I miss his eyes and his mane that was nearly non-existent
and never seemed to grow. I miss the way his neck used to smell and
I miss his wonderful whinney every morning at breakfast time. Feeding the
horses is not the same without him.
I really want so much to thank him for his wonderful eventing career, his
slower working days, and towards the end, the mere pleasure of being able
to say that such a handsome looking horse belonged to me. I feel privileged
to have had him in my life and I hope on some level he knew.
I hope he is happy and pain-free now. He desperately deserves to be and I
will always, always love him very, very much. My days are not the same
without him and I am quite sure they never will be.
Be happy, Charlie.
