She was born inNYS, but we moved to NH years ago. UNH or some other “state flagship” is probably more likely.

It was. It was a lot of hard work and being outside in the rain, cold etc... but definitely fun.
Dr. Temple Grandin does a good job understanding animals especially horses.
They think in pictures.

That really looks like a super nice facility! Around here, my options seem to be great turnout (meaning the horses are on grass, and not in small paddocks eating hay (dried grass) or good footing (think good ski grooming). Since my horse is a horse 23/7, except for when he is suffering my attempts to ride, I have gone for the good turnout for the past 25 years. Draco is in a 5ish acre pasture, with grass, hills, trees and lots of good stuff. The pasture used to be 10 acres, but the owners had it logged and re-did the fence line. Most of the time, I loved that they were out on 10 acres, unless it took me half an hour to find them. I once managed to get myself completely turned around and lost, and ended up about 10 feet from a trail I used to ride on. That was pretty funny. 
During the day, I am now bringing them in out of the bugs. I just hung up part of my fly screens to keep the barn dark and the flies minimal. Tomorrow morning, when the sun is the other way, I will hang up the set on the other end of the barn.
