I've bought very few horses in my life although I've ridden horses my
entire life.  The first horse I bought was a 2 year old Arab.  The
owners were feeding the herd and "Nergie" left his grain, walked up to
me, and licked my face.  

The next horse I bought was purchased 2 days after Nergie died (6
years later).  Talk about emotions!

The one constant in my purchases have been that emotional impact.  If
I'm going to spend time with a horse on the trail, I want us to at
least like each other.
