So I misspoke. This has been a very busy month! Not so much on the lesson front, thanks to the weather.... but, thanks to the weather, lots of de-icing, arena dragging, etc. etc. I've also been very busy shoeing, and am really thinking hard about reducing my personal herd so I have more time for Revi and Jones!
Been keeping Revi exercised but Jones has been on a bit of a break with the weather and all; riding Huggy, the training pony, mostly. He is doing very well, much more consistent in his frame and tempo on the flat, and jumping small verticals quietly. This weekend he will do his first-ever oxer! I'll have to get some pix up....
Gracie is the most fabulous weanling ever... very correct and sensible, wasn't a bit phazed by her first snowfall, and I LOVE watching her trot and gallop, she is so fancy! She is always first at the gate to come in, doesn't let Stormy or Livi push her around. She will be six months old on Saturday. Thank goodness I have Revi and Jones to ride while I wait for her to grow up!
Only taking a couple of horses to the January Ark show, since the NCDCTA banquet is that afternoon. Mel and Drayco won the Jr. Novice division and Revi was second at Training for Horse of the Year so we have to go collect our prizes! The Sporting Days HT is February 5th!
