On Saturday I added 1 more HP to my 911.
This is my new baby, Lola.

Thank you! She is a Percheron filly. I am so excited to work with her and watch her grow.

Lovely beast, but I don't understand how you mount it to the engine. Are special brackets required?

Actually a couple of bungee cords and she is ready to go. Not quite as fast as the 3.2, but lower maintenance costs.

Horses are amazing beasts. I've got limited experience with them, but it doesn't take much to realize...

Nice animal ! We have 2 horses (my daughter is a competitor). I finally took the plunge and built a barn this year. I figured why keep paying someone else to board my horses...I can use that money to pay off the loan for the barn.

If I had the land, I would do the same thing. I did find a really nice ranch about 2 miles from my house, on 130+ acres, with lots of pastures, several roundpens, an arena, etc. I couldn't do anything like that on my own, so in my mind it is worth the $$.
