Our record breaking warm temperatures came to an end on Thursday evening with a violent storm followed by this lovely double rainbow. Pie and Sovey treated us to daily pony rides all week. My tailbone is hurting from too much bareback riding. Ouch - but I do hate to complain when the boys are so good. Today was cooler and windy and I decided to just groom and graze each horse. I admit to being too busy to blog properly, but it is a happy busy. I'll catch up soon!

What a beautiful rainbow!!
ReplyDeleteNow that all of our wind and rain storms are finished, I may be able to get out to ride one of my horses and play with that filly of mine!
Glenda - Thanks for you words of encouragement. As always, you inspire me to keep the creativitiy flowing!
ReplyDeleteallhorsestuff - Kacy you crack me up about riding bareback! I am glad your weather changed and you are out on the trails. I can't wait to read about the ponying trip with sweet Wa mare.
Paint Girl - Glad your wind and rain are done! Now you can enjoy your birthday girl, Chance!
As I get ready to go see Lilly today, the wind is wild! That might mean no trail ride! Because I'd sure hate to get whacked with a falling limb! Maybe instead I will practice my own bareback riding in the ring(?) hah! doubtful! because I am too chicken!
ReplyDeletecluck cluck
baystatebrumby - You are hardly a chicken!!! If I were cantering around like you do I would not be bareback!! lol! I am bareback AT THE WALK!!!!!
ReplyDeleteBareback can be so fun, dont you think? LOVE the double rainbow picture, what a visual treat.
ReplyDeleteSo..curious..with the storms you've been getting (us too), how are the boys doing with the 24/7 turnout? Do they have shelter and did they use? I'm so curious b/c everytime I think Laz could do that, he's in his stall avoiding high winds/ or rain or etc..not sure what to do if in the future I have to move him.
Kristen - I am going to do the "turnout post" tonight - I promise!
ReplyDeleteKristen - I am so tired - too tired to post! I will try for tomorrow. I want to really describe what we are doing with details so...one more day!
