Characters
For when you need a reminder of who's who..
Girl :: 18 year old who probably won't listen to the advice you have. Prone to bad decisions regarding undergarments and attracted to obnoxious horses and men. (The horses always last longer though...)Clark :: Girl's tempermental camper that forever has something breaking.
Kent:: Girl's gas guzzling Chevy Silverado.
Horse :: 5 year old Dutch/Thoroughbred cross. Prone to chasing small animals and hurting herself.
Boss Mare :: Tiny but dangerous trainer. Boss Mare runs the show, attracts large horses and Jack Russells, and reminds a certain teenager to use her brain. She has a voice that can be heard from miles away, and despite this, someone purchased her a microphone to give lessons through... Girl's yet to understand the logic.
Bubba :: Hanoverian gelding, kind of gangly, at 17+ hands too. He and Girl have a morning scratch and cuddle fest.
Glitter :: Five year old TB/Percheron/Hanoverian mare Girl worked with for several months.
Dolly :: Barn dog.
Squeak:: Barn dog/ bed dog.
Barbie :: Mildly psychotic (arguably more than mildly) Thoroughbred mare owned and ridden by Girl from age 15-17. Currently a broodmare for a racetrack stable after several less than stellar occasions.....
Baby Mama :: Big bay Dutch Warmblood mare currently being bred to Sir Sinclair.
Cow :: The first horse. Rotund chestnut Thoroughbred mare who formerly foxhunted and did hunters, now spends time not going forward and looking cranky. Such a difficult life.
Chunky :: Large appendix quarter horse. Emphasis on quarter horse. One of the few sane ones.
Hamlet :: The first pony.. A somewhat scrappy little Missouri foxtrotter that Girl's mother bought when Girl was eight.
Littles :: Girl's students, who seem to always be saying the craziest things. (While riding beautifully, of course.
Miss Manners :: Off the track chestnut Thoroughbred mare, version 2.0.
Pony:: A dappled gray brat that Girl spent her life savings on when she was 14, only to have the check bounce for .20. He's bad, but she loves him.
