Horses of Tir Na Nog

Every once in a while you hear stories that make you wonder how people can do the really rotten things they do. Today, it is our story. Overnight someone came onto the ranch and stole TWO of our golf carts, one of which was our critically important feed cart. It takes a special kind of person to steal from horses rescued from abuse and neglect! We do what we do on a bare bones, no frills budget. Every dollar we raise goes right into caring for our horses and other animals. Obviously this is going to be a hard loss for us to recover from. We do not have theft insurance and it looks like it will cost close to $15,000 to replace our two carts. And one cart was already slated to replace one of our worn out work carts, making it feel like we lost three carts. If the person who took our carts is reading this, do the right thing and bring them back!
