Yes, Abby still owns Smoke. He is not nearly as old as your guy, Karen. Sixteen this year, I think. Smoke has a forever home with Abby, although I imagine when he retires, he will probably come live at our place. She returned him to endurance with the shorter (25 mile) rides, then began riding 50 milers last season. She takes it easy with him, but in each of the rides they did, one of the younger horses they were riding with failed to complete and Smoke just kept trotting along. Nancy
