I thought this thread might be fun. Tell about yourself..whatever you feel comfortable posting on the web.
I am 29..11 years in a row now...no need for a calculator..lol. I am an Air Traffic Controller, my husband is as well but we are at different airports about 70 miles apart. I've been doing this job for 11 years now..only 9 1/2 until retirement! I've been married for 14 1/2 years and we met in college..hubbies name is Doug. We have no children of the human kind. We tried but I couldn't carry, I think that's one reason we are so close to our animals..they are my life. We love to be outdoors...camping, boating, fishing, bow hunting, snow skiing. I also like to tie flies, bowl, read, play piano (which I am not good at). We have a weekend house that we go to on our days off...we are lucky we have basically the same schedule..it is near a lake..in the summer thats where we are as much as possible. I am from Pittsburgh, PA..we moved to MI about 12 years ago. All my family is in PA and NC...so just me and the hubby up here. That's pretty much it in a nutshell. If you go to my profile there is a pic of me and Doug..It's nice to put a face with the name. Anyhow I'd love to hear about you...and see a pic too if you've got one! -------------------- ****Sonya****

Hi all...can't see the links today...stinky dialup...will have to check them out later, have seen the patches ones before I think. Dottie...I will say...you are a hoot!
Madi, I too miss having horses...that was the reason for the minis. We didn't have lots of pasture room...only 1 1/2 acres since most of our property is woods. I wanted a horse, but there was only enough room for one technically...and I didn't want to get just one...I believe horses thrive best in a herd environment, even if the herd is just 2. So, I thought 2 minis...they are horses, they will have company, plenty of room...and I can learn to drive. Somehow I ended up with 4...lol...there is a saying in the mini world..."minis are like potato chips, you can never have just one". Well that is true! I started out with just the two and about a year later got the other two. I did enjoy them, they can be quite the characters, they are loads of fun...mine made me laugh alot...they did alot of goofy things. I did find they liked to play more than full-size horses...they would not only play alot with each other but they would play with toys...large balls, etc...and sticks that would fall from the trees. You should look into it... I did end up putting up a little tree last night at the week-end house...it's kind of "Charlie Brown" looking but I'm glad I did it. Talk to you all soon, Take care, Hugs, Brutus' Mom -------------------- ****Sonya****
