We went and took a lesson with Sally at Kealani Farms in West Grove on Saturday. First off that farm is magnificant. I wanted to stay there! It was that nice. The arena was lovely, the footing was wonderful. Definitely a nice place to take a lesson! And as we unloaded there were some NICE … Continue reading Jump Lesson With Sally at Kealani Farms

Yes I said I was done blogging every day but come on! Habits are hard to break!  I had started this one this week and hadn't managed to combine it on any of the other posts. So here we go! (I am taking the weekend off from blogging though!) 🙂 George the Girth After looking … Continue reading George the Girth (Just Need the Correct Size)!

Wow, last day of NaBloPoMo 2017. Thanks Clover Ledge Farm for pushing me to do it. It was tough writing every day but with the help of the topics it was easier than I thought it would be. Am I going to still write every day? PROBABLY NOT, girlfriend needs a rest. But I am … Continue reading Day 30–Your Future With Horses

I am not trendy. By a longshot. As any of you that have met me or follow me online can see! I don't follow trends and I mostly just buy stuff Amanda tells me to buy. Because I am a puppet. But beside that I just don't care that much. I want comfy clothes, non-tacky … Continue reading Day 29–A Style/Trend in Tack/Riding Apparel That You Don’t Like (Or Not)

Helmet or no Helmet? Helmet of course. As a kid I never rode in one unless in a lesson. I never had a fall when I needed one (except for my Pasha rearing incident and of course I was in a saddle seat then so the bowler hat was NO help at all), but as … Continue reading Day 28–Helmet or No Helmet?

You know you are an equestrian when (list five original ones): Your truck often holds in no particular order: A saddle, two or three saddle pads, spurs, a bridle, helmet, gloves and carrots. Things it never holds: Makeup (except for chapstick), heels, or jewelry! 🙂 You hang all your event ribbons up very carefully but … Continue reading Day 27–You Know You’re an Equestrian When…..(Plus Paper Chase Update)

I don't have a lot of these. Really I don't. Don't cut people off in classes or in lessons. It is rude and shows poor sportsmanship. Even kids learning to ride should have this drilled into them as it is also dangerous at times. Don't run by horses on trails (I am off to a … Continue reading Day 26–Biggest Riding Pet Peeve

I already have my Dream Trailer. Now do I look at the ones at events with the front load ramps and the great dressing rooms? SURE. But I love my trailer. There is not one thing I would change about it. And since my truck couldn't pull more weight than this one, this is the … Continue reading Day 25–Your Dream Trailer

Growing up, my best riding friend was Betsy. She was a couple years younger than me but took lessons with me (I actually think I taught her how to post when she started riding, I can still remember doing the Up, DOWN, UP, Down with her). We rode together, showed together and were pretty inseparable … Continue reading Day 24–Your Best Riding Friend

So, I am not a professional and I don't play one on TV!  I have written 22 days of solid blog postings  but I am calling it today. I am taking the day off! I don't like critiquing anything and I definitely don't want to critique someone famous or well known! But I can post … Continue reading Day 23- Happy Thanksgiving! Critique a Famous Equestrian..or Not!
