Nu Sparkling Angel
Mares > Reference Mares > Angel - 1982

Angel (1982) was by Oh Dr Jim and out of Nuggets Sparkle. She was my very first horse and I rode her from Caledon East to Manitoulin Island partly on the Bruce Trail. Angel taught me so much about horses that I'm still amazed. I also met a great deal of very nice and helpful people along the way and learned a lot about horses from totally different perspectives. All the details sometimes have been confusing but overall it taught me to always look at the big picture!

Below are two articles that appeared in the local newspaper about our trip.
Newspaper article in The Sun Times of Owen Sound in 1998.
Newspaper article in the Manitoulin Express in 1998.

I've sold Angel after this great trip together as I lived in Switzerland at the time and figured it would be a lot for a 18 year old mare to adjust to an entirely new environment. It was agreed that I would get her foal and she was bred to a nice palomino stallion nearby. She gave birth to a gorgeous dunskin gelding in 2000 that I've named Zavijava. I was told that both mare and colt died in a thunderstorm that fall.
