Change of plans... again.

Yep, good thing I'm pretty laid back, otherwise I'd be a mess right now.  6 days until I leave, and we are just now finalizing plans.  Yikes!  But I found a transporter that I liked MUCH better than the first guy I talked to, so I told her I was booking with her immediately.  And boy am I glad I did.  I got an email from her that she had another horse traveling with mine to florida, and because it was just the 2 of them, she was putting them in box stalls to make it easier for both of them.  Plus she won't charge me a difficult loading fee if Pistol takes awhile to get on the trailer, thank goodness!  And best of all, she's letting him travel in his Parelli halter.  Phew.  I was going to feel silly having my horse get off the trailer at the ISC in a nylon halter.  Not to mention I was like "good luck leading him without his rope halter!".  But this new woman totally understands, and she is glad I do natural horsemanship with Pistol, because she loves those kind of clients that don't bully their horses into the trailer.  Yay!  So now I think my plans are finalized.  She is picking Pistol up October 1, and he should make it down there right around the time I do.  I'm bummed that I can't drive him myself, but I get the reasoning behind it.  And really, it doesnt matter, because I'm confident my shipper will treat him well, just like I would.  She even will give him treats if she thinks he wants one.  :D
