Spirit Blending Foals Before and After Birth, An Old Way Continued
The author was born and raised in Oklahoma on a ranch with cattle, horses and mules. His lifetime association with horses varies from the running Thoroughbreds at the PaulFred Farm in Berryhill, Oklahoma, to catching and working with mustangs in the Stansbury Mountains of Utah. Mr. Wadley has been a forester, a range rider and a packer in Wyoming, Utah, and Idaho for the U. S. Forest Service. The working with and training of horses and mules was a part of the daily activities. A wide variety of behavior in the horses and mules was encountered in the different regions but they yielded to the old technique of spirit blending. He received a lifetime appointment as an officer in The Order of The Golden Ark by Prince Bernard of The Netherlands for work in China among the ethnic minorities. He lives in Idaho where he continues to work with his beloved horses.
