Shout out to Microsoft and the Day of Caring!

With over 70 volunteers from Microsoft, 

a ton of work got done at the farm for our Day of Caring. 

A huge thank you to all of the awesome Microsoft people that came out and worked in the blazing sun, 

getting us sparkling clean and ready for winter! 

You are now officially part of the Serenity Equine Rescue Family!

Our newest resident, Spirit, who has already stolen our hearts, 

is loving all of the activity and attention from the 

awesome Microsoft crew. 

They worked non-stop in the hot sun and 

our farm has never looked better! 

Thanks guys!

Microsoft has been coming to Serenity for many years now to help. Here's some great photos from 2009.

In Good Spirits...

It was a quiet day on the farm. I had cleaned out all the upper paddocks, marveling at how peaceful the horses were, except JayJay, who had been a bit agitated, calling out and acting unsettled. I had just finished dumping a wheelbarrow in the bin, when I turned to discover something beautiful. Our JayJay, had found a loving spirit, in Spirit.

Spirit and JayJay

At first I couldn't believe how calm JayJay had become. She stood still while Spirit gently nibbled on her neck. I crept up with my camera, expecting one or the other to move away, but they simply watched me, enjoying each other's company.

What we have all discovered over the short time our new boy has been with Serenity, is that the tall, handsome gentleman, is just that, gentle. A gentle soul, who exchanges nibbles and caresses with Chance (the two are so tall they can interact over the tops of their stalls in the barn). A gentle soul who loves attention from the people around him. A gentle soul who calms even JayJay, our beautiful Arab girl.

Every day, Spirit gets a little stronger. His confidence grows and he's slowly putting on weight. As he becomes healthy, his personality continues to emerge, his intelligence, gentleness, and good humor are all coming to the forefront. He is, without a doubt, a very special horse.

Introducing Spirit

It is my great pleasure to introduce Spirit! Our new boy has a new name and, starting tomorrow, a new paddock and pasture mate. It will be wonderful for him to be in with another horse now that his quarantine is over. Check back for photos of Spirit in his new spot at the farm.

Thank you to Charlotte Cox-Turner for putting the name "Spirit" on the list.

Spirit

Our sweet man is doing great, it's wonderful to see him eating.

And don't forget he's available for sponsorship! 

Help us get him healthy again.
