This time next week, I will be in Lexington!!!! I can't wait!
I have arranged a couple purchases in advance: The newest edition of my friend Penny's Breyer Animal Quick Reference book, the newest edition of Lesli Kathman's Breeds & Colors book, a cull Grazing Mare purchased from a friend, and four Stones purchased from an estate a few friends of mine are helping to disperse - two Arabians, an ISH, and my first Stone Tennessee Walking Horse!
Before I immerse myself completely in the joys of BreyerFest, I've got one more rainbow pony for Pride month.
This adorable little thing is the third custom from the group I won at Rainbow Rave Live last year, a rainbow striped G2 Scrambling Foal. She makes a complete family with the two adults.
Pride Month has been an interesting experience this year. I'm glad to see companies still promoting it despite the bigotry, discrimination, and threats by the current administration, but the hateful voices have gotten a lot louder, and it's scary to watch our society take giant steps backward in a way that puts folks who are non-white, non-cisgender, non-heterosexual, non-wealthy, and non-male more at risk than ever. We need to do better.
Be inclusive and kind, love your neighbor, treat others as you would want to be treated, and value the beautiful diversity of the human experience.
