"Back in the Day Gambino"

Gambrinus HAN x Solo Energy xx
D.O.B. 06/21/1997
Gambino, our Hanoverian gelding, arrived on
the farm just before Christmas, 2009. I thought the llamas were big
animals...then I met Gambino.
In his past life, Gambino was a successful
hunter/jumper show horse. Here at Storybook Farm, he's in retirement,
enjoying 24/7 freedom and hay! His typical day begins at 6am, with a
bucket of grain and fresh hay. After breakfast he checks in with his llama
friends and then finds a place in the sun to take a nap. Late mornings and
early afternoons consist of additional hay snacks, cool drinks, additional llama check-ins,
and another nap. Evenings he stands quietly
for a massage, pedicure, and brushing until he shines.
Yes, Gambino is suffering here at Storybook
Farm...the poor thing!
Riding after thirty years has been an
adventure, but lots of fun. We are so glad Gambino came to live with
us...and I think the llamas are too!
