Tamara, I'm awfully sorry to hear about your experience but my experience has been what Lynne posted about it being a great time and well organized. I just spoke to Patrick and it sounds like there were some crossed wires about the time of the appointment and to where the starting point was.

Your comment about there were no signs and the farm is very wrong because there is a HUGE sign right on CR 42 stating Happy Horse Farm, I know because I had the sign made. Also, you were not at the right starting point, you were already in the Ocala forest and you were supposed to meet at the farm. You also must understand that most of the time when you are conversing with Patrick or his help, they are working either loading horses or riding in the forest so his cell service is not very reliable nor is his ability to truly focus on a conversation.

In any event, we are sorry for the inconvenience for you and your family, and I hope you realize this is a working farm with rescued animals and there is no formal office or secretary to talk to, it is volunteers who like to ride and care for abused animals.

Sorry for your disappointment but I think there were many miscommunications with this appointment.
