I think it is safe to say Ollie loves his new toy! He loves to sit in and wait for us to get finished whatever task we are doing. So cute! This is a huge hawk we had in our field the other day. He was massive. Like the photos do not do him justice. … Continue reading It’s Schnauzer Sunday!

It was the flux capacitator!! Air conditioning is FIXED! YAY. But the tech didn't get to our house till almost 9 pm last night. DUDES I was almost catanonic on the couch by then. It did cool up last night and we had a lovely breeze blowing in from the storm doors but still. DAMN … Continue reading It Was the Flux Capacitator: And Oops He Did It Again!

So my friends Stephanie and Henry brought their horses over on Sunday and we rode in my front field and yes this means I rode twice in 3 days. That is a world record for me, you all. I am also on my fourth blog post in four days. I am on a roll. Who … Continue reading Riding At Home on Sunday!

The flies are upon us big time. I am not sure what else I can do to keep them off us and Remus. Our fly spray system is down in the barn (we are working on it but need to order parts). The regular flies themselves are bad but not that bad probably because of … Continue reading Why Flies, Why? Buzz Off!

I am going to try to keep this short. Or as short as I can since the day was never ending! I picked up my friend Steph and her mare Cici on the way to our lesson in Missisippi. Guys it was a long ass night. I go to sleep at 830 most nights (or … Continue reading Late Night Lesson!

Guess what? I have a lesson scheduled! And it is tonight. YAY. I am hauling down to Mississippi (about an hour away on decent roads) to have a lesson. I asked (okay hounded) the trainer to fit me in. And now once I told my friend Steph (she already rides with this person) about it … Continue reading A Lesson Is Scheduled! Will Frogs Be Falling From the Sky Next?

Trying to get back to blogging regularly but totally didn't post yesterday (oops that day ran away from me fast) so you get a Tuesday post instead. I rode Remus Saturday morning very early like around 7 am I was already on board. Yay.

Thank goodness for cute dogs! Gretchen and Bernie sharing the reclining couch (Gretchen was there first!) Oh … Continue reading Schnauzer Sunday

Dressage The grounds at Flying Cross are amazing. We had buckets of rain the night before but even so the footing was decent (albeit wet) and we had a not too heathen time of 10 something for Remus's dressage (and May's and others) so we didn't have to get up at 0 dark thirty. Remus … Continue reading Flying Cross Mini Trial: Remus
