Karen barely had her under control. She was a wild thing! When Karen&#8217;s husband, Colonel Janny, was transferred to Washington state, Karen asked me to take Dolly, since she wouldn&#8217;t find a way to ship her out there. So I took her, when I divorced and bought this place she and\u00a0Melody came with me. She had ten happy years on this place. I have had her for eleven years. Rarely rode her &#8212; she was too crazy. But she was sweet when you were on the ground. Loved baths!<\/p>\n<p>Learned &#8216;Land of Rest&#8217; for the pennywhistle and our group had our last performance for the summer, it was a very high, energetic evening. Good audience and cake! Hallie came to take pictures and I will post some soon.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-730\" src=\"https:\/\/paulettejiles.com\/pj_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/untitled-212x300.png\" alt=\"untitled\" width=\"212\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/paulettejiles.com\/pj_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/untitled-212x300.png 212w, https:\/\/paulettejiles.com\/pj_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/untitled-624x884.png 624w, https:\/\/paulettejiles.com\/pj_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/untitled.png 635w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 212px) 100vw, 212px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Then my water pump went out but our fiddler Tom, who can do anything, came and fixed it. Thank God for friends.<\/p>\n<p>I miss beautiful Dolly every day. When you gave her a bath with purple shampoo her mane and tail were like white silk. She put me on the ground twice in our decade-long relationship, when I was foolish enough to try to ride her.
