Three days ago, we moved all our horses (and two cats) to our new farm in HaYogev village. HaYogev is located just below the ancient Tel Megiddo (Tell al-Mutesellim) also known as Armageddon, which has an important history stretching back several thousands of years. Strategically located between the Mediterranean, Egypt and greater Syria, Megiddo is most remembered by horse lovers as the site of King Solomon's famous stables, which were filled with the finest desert horses of his era. These horses were considered second to none in all the world, both then and even unto today, and the remains of ancient royal stables at Tel Megiddo attest to its ancient fame.
We wish to thank all our dear friends who supported us throughout this last year and a half. Special mention to our endlessly patient architect and project manager, Oshrat Achrak, and to Falah Wehbi, Ali Zavidat, Waheel Mahmid, and all the workers and craftsmen who played such important roles in creating this huge project. We cannot forget to mention our dear families, who hardly saw us during this time, and all the wonderful people and friends who supported and helped make this dream come true. All the names are simply too numerous to mention, but you know who you are, and surely, we couldn't have done it without you!!!
Last, but not least, we wish to especially thank all of our wonderful friends who spent last Friday helping us safely transport our horses to their new home. The long line of trailers was amazing! Within three and one half hours, all of our horses were standing safe and sound in their new stalls.
A heartfelt thank you!
