Dear Friends,
It is a very snowy morning here in Lexington. So, I get to stay inside for a bit and visit with Charles. Lucky me! (Notice the sun shining in my back window. It is absolutely gorgeous here. Looks just like a holiday card!)
My Sunday message should be coming out soon…sorry for the delay! (Might be just up now.) Dottie was helping with Sarah’s video of me enjoying the outdoors…and we had to change a few things do make it all ‘pop up’ easily for all of you.
In it, you get to see me DANCING to MY OWN SONG in the snow and in the paddock! This is really special.
Have a wonderful day! Charles and I are sending you one big HUG and KISS from my cozy barn at Lane’s End Farm.
With love,
HUGS TO ALL~

Zenyatta – where will your video be posted. Not all of us have Face Book or want to be on it. So I hope it is easy for all to find. I so want to see you dancing again. Hugs to you!

Glad you are enjoying the snow. Lots of yummy grass under that snow. Your going to love it. Is the video going to be on this site or on your facebook page? Looking forward to seeing it and you dancing to your song.

What a gorgeous picture !! We have been thinking about how special you are, Zenyatta. TV programs/pictures do not capture the brilliance in your racing career. We went to all of your CA races except Del Mar and the “real life” experience left us speechless because of your seeming effortless acceleration (e.g., in 2009 BC Class, against Reinterval, Switch, St. Trinian’s). As we watched with our own eyes, it looked like you created an optical illusion because you barely moved the upper part of your body while just speeding up like a streaking comet. TV and programs just don’t catch the experience–made us gasp . . . .
Debbie
Zenyatta, I think my daughter would offer to do any of their jobs for free just to be able to see your beautiful face everyday!! The people at Lane’s End are sure lucky. Stay warm and cozy, Love you!

Thank you. Virtual love to Z, her owners and team, and all her fans.

That is so sweet……you are one loving girl with a huge heart….one cute snuggle girl. Charles is so lucky to see you every day. But I bet he feels like he has had a workout when he walks you outside and holding onto you with all that dancing and prancing. Thank you Dottie again for all these wonderful pictures, videos, and posts.

Dear Zenyatta. Hello from Colorado. There is a chill in the air here also, but I agree, it makes it feel more like the holiday season. It is fun to see you enjoying your time outside. Kentucky is gorgeous and the various farms are absolutely beautiful. I have always been treated with gracious kindness when I have visited and I am so glad that you are receiving the same. Your new friends appear to be taking very good care of you and giving you lots of love, with plenty of hugs, kisses and presents. Yea!! How special! The video and pictures are wonderful, thank you for sharing. Best wishes to all of Team Z and everyone at Lane’s End. I hope you are all doing great and thank you again for keeping us informed. P.S. I just received my print from Fred Stone. He captured your wonderful spirit beautifully. Mike, thank you for the autograph, wish I had been there in person. Goodbye for now Zenny. Love, Dawn I
Linda Shull
Keep the videos coming. Wonder what she would do if you showed her a video of her old pals in California. She is so gorgeous and smart.

Hello Zenyatta. Thanks to Dottie’s updates we know you are doing well. Where will Sarah’s video be posted? Dottie please let us know. Thanks!
Christina
You’re lucky its so nice there. Here in Minnesota we have 3 feet of snow! I hope your enjoying your new home. Can’t wait to see your little baby Zenyattas
Alyssa
I think the Lane’s End team is doing a fabulous job of taking care of you! I know a lot of people think you don’t need the lip chain but I understand it’s for your own safety – you’re smart enough that you know when it’s on to not try and act up (despite what a lot of people think, just because you’re a sweetheart doesn’t mean you’re not prone to acting like a HORSE). By the time the weather is nice enough for you to play on your own you’ll be nice and settled in. Thank you so much to the new additions of the Zenyatta Team for keeping her safe and happy and for keeping US updated!

Hello Zenny There`s a lot of snow over here in Germany too, but I don`t like it. Its no fun – I want the sun to come back. Hope you can go outside soon. Stay healthy pretty Queen.
Jenna
Thank you much Dottie! This video just makes me smile. She’s just gorgeous in the snow. And the snuggly video with Charles is the bomb. She really is a doll. I have to meet her! I never thought I’d say ‘I have to meet a horse’ but she is beyond special. A kind soul.
Elizabeth
Zenny, what size blanket do you wear? 84? Stay warm!

Hi Zenny!
Just imagine how beautiful it’s gonna be there in the spring when the lush Kentucky bluegrass comes up. You’re a lucky girl!
I just watched the video of you in the snow, w/your song playing in the background.
Thanks for today’s update.
Hugs and kisses from Ohio!!!
