Re: What happened to Saddle City?
Yes, I think the appaloosa was called Strawberry Splash. And that did happen, about the heat stroke. We kept in touch with Marty Strasbourg for a few years after we left the islands (in fact she may have been the one who informed your mother about us marrying Limeys?). She told us that after Strawberry died, several years later, a post mortem showed he'd had heartworms or something, and that was why he'd collapsed, and NOT because she had failed to ensure that Maria conditioned the horse properly, as was the gossip at the time. So that was obviously rankling her, over the years...!http://www.hawaiithreads.com/images/smilies/wink.gif
