In the ad, they had her photo and she was pulling a Christmas sled wearing a Santa hat. She was beautiful. I finally stopped seeing ads for her. Figured she was sold. Long story short, we went to this place in North Georgia to look at another horse. I saw her tied up to the fence and knew instantly that was the horse I had seen on craigslist. She looked horrible. Her mane and tail were roached, her feet were a mess and she was a bag of bones. My husbands first comment when we pulled in was "thank God we aren't looking at that horse". I immediately told him that she was the horse I had been seeing on craigslist. My husband couldn't believe she was the same horse. Needless to say, we paid more then we should but I was compelled to rescue her. As we were driving out, one of the stable hands stopped us and said "I forget to tell you her name, it is Strawberry Daiquiri". My husband looked at me and I told "I told you so". Any way, on the way home, my husband decided to change her name because she was going to be his horse. He called her "Harley" with the understanding that he would tell all of his buddies he was going to ride his Harley - he couldn't have done that with a name 'Strawberry Daiquiri'.[/QUOTE]
