Thank you for your response. It means a lot. I'm dealing a bit better now....or am at least trying.

Any whos, I have found a few horses, though the 1st 4 didn't work out. The 1st seemed perfect. A 3 year old better then green roany gelding out of "Lads Strawman" Seemed PERFECT from the vid, looked near ready to step into the show ring! Drove 10 hours in one day (5 hours each way) to Ohio to see this horse, to only find out that he'd been sitting in his stall for the 6 months since the vid was shot! His owner conveniently failed to inform me of this fact..... Apparently her daughter decided not to bother w/him any more. Needless to say I was less than happy! lol!
After him, I found a nice 16.3 8 year old out of "Artful Move" but he was sold before I even had the chance to go see him.
There is a new one though, provided the X-rays & vet check pan out, I may buy him. (fingers crossed) It's a 3 year old gelding out of "Sunbeach Honky Tonk" & I got along w/him pretty well when I went up to see him. He's solid but may color up a bit on the rump. Though he's only 16.0 hands (I was hoping for something a bit taller) but I figure he may have some growing left to do. Do any of you know anything about Honky Tonk babies, growth rate wise? Just curious cause my 3 year old Colida filly is still growing. Horses can grow until they're 5 or 6 right?

Oh! We're riding our 3 year old now! I'm training her myself & she's doing great so far! Sorry for the off topicness, I'm just so pleased with her! She's looking to make a great Western pleasure/Barrel/Showmanship horse! Now all I need is my hunter! lol
